Last season, wide receiver Nico Collins had a breakout year with the Texans. He recently signed a three-year extension worth up to $75 million, cementing his position as the team’s No. 1 receiver for the foreseeable future. Despite his significant payday, Collins remains focused on working hard and believes he has more to offer the league in years to come.
In an interview with Aaron Wilson of KPRC, Collins expressed his gratitude for the opportunity and called the deal “a good thing.” He explained that he has been dreaming of playing in the NFL since childhood and receiving a second contract was a major milestone for him. Collins views this new contract as motivation to continue proving himself on the field.
With rising quarterback C.J. Stroud and other offensive weapons on the team, Collins is set up for success as defenses will have to account for multiple threats on the field. This support system gives Collins confidence that his performance last season was just the beginning of what he can achieve in the NFL.
