Traded to San Francisco
The 49ers agreed Wednesday to acquire Collins from the Texans in exchange for a seventh-round draft pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Javon Hargrave dealt with a torn ligament in his thumb down the stretch, and the 49ers are expected to release Arik Armstead (knee). The addition of Collins thus solves San Francisco's need for a defensive tackle. Collins started 16 games for the Texans in 2023 and set a new career high in tackles (41) while tying his previous best mark with five sacks.

After bursting onto the scene as the NFL's Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2023, C.J. Stroud and the Texans offense will be looking to take the next step with a new top weapon in the form of WR Stefon Diggs.
The Steelers might assign Joey Porter to Stefon Diggs, but if so the decision might backfire against Pittsburgh.
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce is cleared from the final injury report and may get the 16 yards he needs to reach 1,000, but he's unlikely to play the entire game Week 18.
