  • Texans' Tank Dell: First touchdown since 2024

    Dell turned a team-high nine targets into four catches for 105 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 44-22 road victory against the Chargers

    In his second appearance since returning from a brutal left knee injury suffered in December 2024, Dell again recorded a reception of 40-plus yards, connecting with C.J. Stroud for a 63-yard TD in the second quarter. It was one of five touchdown passes for Stroud, who spread the ball around to nine different pass catchers and four that reached the end zone at least once. Dell will aim to build on the momentum next Sunday at Cleveland.

  • Texans' Tank Dell: Highlight play in return to action

    Dell caught his only target for 43 yards and added a two-yard rush during Sunday's 27-21 overtime loss to the Giants.

    Dell made his return to action after missing nearly two full years while recovering from a dislocated kneecap and series of torn ligaments in his left knee. The wide receiver was only on the field for 11 offensive plays, but he made the most of his one target. Dell reeled in a deep ball from C.J. Stroud in the second quarter, churning out a 43-yard gain. With Nico Collins, Marvin Harrison, Xavier Hutchinson, Jaylin Noel (toe) and Kayshon Boutte also in the mix at wide receiver, Dell may have a hard time getting many looks each week.

  • Texans' Tank Dell: Cleared to make 2026 debut

    Dell (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Dell is ready to take the field for the first time since Dec. 21, 2024, when he suffered a dislocated kneecap and multiple ligament tears in his left knee. The 2023 third-rounder established a role for himself in the offense before the injury, but he'll likely be eased into the workload in his first game in nearly two years. Dell figures to operate in a rotational role behind Nico Collins, Marvin Harrison and Jaylin Noel.

  • Texans' Tank Dell: Activated from injured reserve

    Dell (knee) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Dell thus has a chance to log his first game action since he suffered a serious left knee injury Dec. 21, 2024 that included a dislocated kneecap and multiple ligament tears. The Texans' receiving corps is in a much different state this time around, with Marvin Harrison, Jaylin Noel, Xavier Hutchinson and Kayshon Boutte all vying for reps behind No. 1 option Nico Collins. Where Dell may stand behind Collins remains to be seen, assuming the former is active for Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Texans' Tank Dell: On track for season debut Week 7

    Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said Monday that Dell (knee) is on track to return from injured reserve to make his season debut in Week 7 versus the Giants, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Dell will be making his first appearance since Dec. 21, 2024, when he sustained a severe left knee injury that included a dislocated kneecap and damage to multiple ligaments. Through his first two seasons in the NFL, Dell had emerged as a key complementary option behind No. 1 wideout Nico Collins, but the Texans are likely tempering expectations for the 26-year-old coming off a nearly two-year layoff. Dell, who was cleared to resume practicing Oct. 7 and was a full participant throughout Week 6 prep, is expected to be in line for a light snap count in his 2026 debut.

  • Texans' Tank Dell: Won't debut in Week 6

    The Texans ruled out Dell (knee) for Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.

    Currently in the midst of his second week of practicing with the Texans after having his 21-day evaluation window opened Oct. 7, Dell has taken a notable step forward in his recovery from a severe left knee injury by turning in back-to-back full sessions Wednesday and Thursday. Though the Texans won't bring him back from injured reserve for the London game, Dell stands a strong chance of being activated ahead of the team's Oct. 25 matchup with the Giants and seeing his first game action since December 2024 if he can continue to practice without restrictions next week.

  • Texans' Tank Dell: Upgrades to full practice

    Dell (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Last Wednesday, the Texans opened Dell's 21-day evaluation window, with the receiver proceeding to turn in two limited practices while sitting out another. He's now taken a step forward in his second week of practice, turning in a full session for the first time since he sustained a multi-ligament left knee injury back on Dec. 21, 2024. The Texans will likely want to see Dell turn in additional full practices before reinstating him from injured reserve, but he could have a shot at making his 2026 debut as soon as Sunday against the Jaguars in London if all goes well over the next few days. Once he's reinstated, Dell will be vying with the newly acquired Marvin Harrison as well as Kayshon Boutte, Xavier Hutchinson and Jaylin Noel for playing time behind No. 1 wideout Nico Collins.

  • Texans' Tank Dell: Won't return for Week 5

    Dell (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    Dell's 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve opened Wednesday, and the fourth-year wideout logged back-to-back limited practices before not participating in Friday's session. He's in the final stages of his recovery from a severe left knee injury that he sustained in late December of 2024, and while he won't return for Week 5, his next chance to do so is Week 6 against the Jaguars on Sunday, Oct. 18.
