Tank Dell’s season could be done, as he appeared to suffer a nasty knee injury while playing the Chiefs on Saturday.
The Texans wide receiver made a touchdown catch off an incredible pass from quarterback C.J. Stroud in the third quarter of Saturday’s game. But he collided with a teammate while going down in the end zone and immediately held his knee.
You can see the unfortunate incident in the video below:

There Was immediate Concern For Tank Dell
Tank Dell has had a tough time in the pros.
After having his rookie season cut short 2023, Dell was the victim of a shooting incident during the offseason.
It now appears that he could be out for a significant period, and there was immediate concern over the injury, with several Texans players seen checking on their teammate after he went down.

While the situation seems pretty dire, we hope the injury isn’t as bad as it looked.
