The Houston Texans are starting out hot against theCleveland Browns.

After forcing a three-and-out on defense, quarterback C.J. Stroud marched Houston down the field for a touchdown on their opening drive of the game.

Collins now has five touchdowns this season, including his acrobatic catch against the Los Angeles Chargers last week.
