Tank Dell's Devastating Knee Injury: A Setback for the Texans' Wide Receiver

NFLfootballHouston TexansinjuryTank Dell

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell suffered a gruesome knee injury during Saturday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Dell, who had just scored a touchdown, tore his ACL and dislocated his kneecap after colliding with a teammate. He was taken off the field in an ambulance and admitted overnight to a hospital in Kansas City before returning to Houston for further evaluation. Dell's injury is his second major leg injury in two NFL seasons, as he had previously broken his leg in an early-December game against the Denver Broncos last year. The Texans will look to wideout John Metchie III, Robert Woods, and Xavier Hutchinson to help a thin receiving core that has already lost Stefon Diggs to a torn ACL. Dell finishes the season with 667 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
