Higgins' ACL injury clears path for Collins' 30% target share and top-five ceiling.

Nico Collins has improved from average to just above average after Jayden Higgins suffered an ACL injury, opening a wide path to a 30% target share. The source notes Collins does not need 10+ targets per game to produce; eight targets that are predominantly downfield or in the red zone will suffice. Over the past three seasons when healthy, Collins ranks below only a few names in production, and without an established second option on the team, he has an incredible floor with his usual top-five ceiling if he stays healthy.
