Further evaluation of Tank Dell‘s knee injury has not produced an encouaraging update. In addition to the dislocated kneecap he suffered on Saturday, the second-year receiver is dealing with a torn ACL.
Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans delivered the news Monday, confirming Dell will miss the remainder of the 2024 season. A long rehab process awaits, and remaining on the sidelines into the start of the 2025 campaign would not come as a surprise. In any case, Houston will be notably shorthanded at wideout moving forward.
Dell went down after a collision with Jared Wayne while scoring a touchdown during the Texans’ loss to the Chiefs. He was immediately taken to hospital and diagnosed with the dislocated kneecap. As Ryans noted on Monday, however, the ACL in the affected knee has been torn in addition to other damage. It was unclear at first if surgery would be required, but obviously that is now the case.
More to come…
