Our 2026 Preseason Outlook

The numbers spell out exactly where Collier sits on the ladder. Across six 2024 appearances he logged just a 4.2% snap share, turning five carries into 12 yards at 2.4 a pop with a longest run of four. Two targets produced a single catch for negative four yards, and the efficiency markers are brutal: minus-0.658 EPA per play and a grand total of 0.8 fantasy points. There is no breakaway speed on tape (zero runs of 10-plus) and no broken tackles to point to.

The situation hasn't changed his standing. He's back on a reserve/future deal heading into the offseason program, carrying no ADP, no consensus ranking, and a projection sheet of zeros. Facing the league's 27th-toughest back schedule, he profiles as camp-body depth who must beat out bodies just to dress. Leave him on the waiver wire unless an injury cascade forces Las Vegas's hand.
