Nico Collins injury boosts Dalton Schultz's role against Bengals

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has been ruled out for the game against the Cincinnati Bengals, impacting the team's offensive strategy. With Collins sidelined, tight end Dalton Schultz is expected to take on a larger role as the primary pass catcher, following his eight targets in the previous game against the Buffalo Bills. Schultz's fantasy value has increased, as he is positioned to benefit from the extra workload. The Bengals' defense, though improved, had issues defending tight ends last season, suggesting a favorable matchup for Schultz in this context.
