Signed a contract with the Cowboys in August of 2025.
Latches on with Dallas
OTDallas Cowboys
August 1, 2025
The Cowboys signed Collins to a contract Friday, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
The Cowboys are solidifying their depth at offensive tackle with Tyler Guyton (knee) and Hakeem Adeniji (concussion) out with injuries. Collins last saw regular-season action in 2022 with the Bengals, in part due to a knee injury that played a role in Cincinnati releasing him in September of 2023. Collins has played only at right tackle since 2017, and with Guyton in jeopardy of missing Week 1, the Cowboys could shuffle their offensive line by shifting Terence Steele to left tackle so that Collins can play at right. More likely, however, the 32-year-old will simply provide depth if he makes the season-opening roster.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2015
Collins missed all of 2020 due to hip surgery, one of a number of injuries that toppled the Cowboys' once-formidable offensive line. The 28-year-old is expected to be 100 percent for Week 1 and should resume his duties as the starting right tackle.
Collins was projected to potentially be taken in the top half of the first round in 2015, but his connection to a murder investigation caused risk-averse front offices to pass him up completely. Cleared of any suspicion after the draft, the Cowboys quickly signed him as a UDFA, and while Collins will probably come off the bench as a rookie he figures to start at left guard or right tackle as soon as 2016.

November 4, 2024
Collins was one of four offensive lineman to work out for the Texans on Monday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Houston's had a lot of injuries along the offensive line, with left guard Kenyon Green the latest to go down in Thursday's loss to the Jets. Collins hasn't played in the NFL since 2022 when he started 15 games for the Bengals, and while he has spent most of career at right tackle, he does have some experience at guard.
