STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Collins' contested catch rate (83%) elite but man coverage matchup vs. Browns is unfavorable.

Collins ranks last in ESPN's 'Open Score' for separation ability among 74 qualified wide receivers, but has caught 14 of 17 contested targets (83%) this season, a mark only topped by Carnell Tate and Puka Nacua. He leads the NFL in passer rating when targeted (144.4). Against the Browns' man-heavy defense (43.4%, most in league), Collins averages a more underwhelming 1.5 yards per route run against man compared to 2.46 against zone.
