Tank Dell's return gives new life to struggling Texans' roster amid bye week
There's not much to celebrate around a two-win Houston Texans team entering the bye week, but if there's a light at the end of the gloomy tunnel, Tank Dell sure is brightening thing up.
The Houston Texans' roster received a boost ahead of their bye week with the return of Tank Dell, who had missed over 600 days of football due to a devastating knee injury. The team honored Dell with the final introduction before the game against the New York Giants, despite his own fatigue and anxiety. Dell, a former third-round pick, showcased his speed and playmaking abilities during the overtime loss, breaking free for his first reception since the touchdown and recording a 43-yard catch to push Houston just outside the red zone.
When injuries forced Jaylin Noel to assume punt return duties, Dell also proved his versatility, recording a 14-yard return. Dell, known for his comfort in the physicality of the game, expressed no concern about getting tackled, as he had been playing football for two decades. With the Texans set to face the Los Angeles Chargers in their next game, Dell's presence on the field could provide a much-needed spark to the struggling team's roster.
