Tank Dell Carted Off Field With Injury

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell suffered a dislocated kneecap during a game against the Kansas City Chiefs, prompting his hospitalization after being carted off the field. The injury occurred in the third quarter following a 30-yard touchdown catch from quarterback C.J. Stroud, when he collided with teammate Jared Wayne. Dell was taken to the University of Kansas Hospital for evaluation and may require surgery, although further assessments are ongoing. Coach DeMeco Ryans expressed concerns for Dell, highlighting his importance to the team, as several players were visibly emotional following the incident. Dell has recorded 667 receiving yards and three touchdowns this season, and this injury comes after a challenging rookie year marred by a previous leg injury and a shooting incident earlier in the year. The Texans ultimately lost the game 27-19 to the Chiefs, struggling to maintain momentum after Dell's injury.
