Maliek Collins News
The San Francisco 49ers acquired defensive tackle Maliek Collins from the Houston Texans on Wednesday, according to a source. It's unclear what the Texans will receive in return. The 49ers have been making it a point to upgrade their entire defensive line this offseason, and Collins is the latest addition to the unit. The 28-year-old former third-round pick of the Dallas Cowboys in 2016 out of Nebraska recorded a career-high 41 tackles (19 solo) and a career-high-tying five sacks while adding eight tackles for loss and 18 QB hits in 16 regular-season games for the Texans in 2023 in his third year with the team. With Arik Armstead expected to be released this offseason and with Javon Hargrave coming of a thumb injury late last year, Collins will give the Niners' defensive line some reinforcement heading into 2024.
The Houston Texans signed defensive tackle Maliek Collins to a two-year, $23 million contract extension on Wednesday that includes $20 million guaranteed, according to a source. Collins lands the extension after posting a career-high 37 tackles (27 solo), 3.5 sacks, nine tackles for loss, 10 QB hits and two passes defensed in 15 starts in his second year with the Texans in 2022. The 28-year-old isn't relevant in IDP fantasy leagues, but he's going to continue being a key cog on Houston's defensive line for the next two seasons. Collins was originally a third-round selection by the Dallas Cowboys in 2016 out of Nebraska. He has 165 career tackles (107 solo) and 20.5 sacks in his seven NFL seasons to date.
Houston Texans defensive lineman Maliek Collins (chest) exited Sunday's game versus the Las Vegas Raiders. The 27-year-old is questionable to return, so if he's done for the remainder of Week 7, he'll finish with only one tackle. Collins has 12 total tackles in 2022-23. As a result, there shouldn't be too many disappointed IDP managers if he misses time moving ahead.
