Tank Dell - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Preparing for return in 2026 Dell (knee) is making progress and preparing for the 2026 season, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact There haven't been any notable updates on Dell during the regular season, but this confirms he won't be activated from the reserve/PUP list at any point during the playoffs. Dell is working his way back from a torn ACL, MCL and LCL suffered last Week 16 in Kansas City. He underwent multiple surgeries to repair the knee. Dell is signed through the 2026 season.

Moved to reserve/PUP list The Texans placed Dell (knee) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.

Impact Dell will be required to miss a minimum prerequisite of four regular-season games after having been placed on the reserve/PUP list, though it remains to be see exactly when -- if at all -- Houston expects him to be ready to resume practicing this season. The 2023 third-round pick is recovering from a severe injury sustained last December. Nico Collins and Christian Kirk will kick off the 2025 campaign as C.J. Stroud's clear top two wide receivers, while rookies Jayden Higgens and Jaylin Noel compete for No. 3 reps.

No timetable for return GM Nick Caserio acknowledged Wednesday that there's no timetable for the return of Dell (knee), who is on the active/physically unable to perform list, Jonathan M. Alexander of The...

Impact While at this stage, Caserio hasn't completely ruled out the possibility that Dell could return at some point this season, it's clear that the wideout -- who suffered a significant knee injury last December -- still has a way to go in his recovery process. With that in mind, Caserio noted that Dell is "in the building every day. He's working really hard, but we're not going to put a timetable on anything," a notion echoed by coach DeMeco Ryans, who added that the 2023 third-rounder is "crushing the rehab." With Dell likely to miss a good portion of the coming season, at a minimum, the Texans' top healthy veteran wide receivers are Nico Collins and Christian Kirk, with 2025 draftees Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel also in the mix to carve out steady roles in the team's passing attack.

Placed on PUP The Texans placed Dell (knee) on the Physically Unable to Perform list for the start of training camp, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Dell is unlikely to participate this summer, coming back from MCL, LCL and ACL tears suffered Week 16 of last season. He'll likely miss a good chunk of the upcoming regular season, if not all of it. Dell had multiple surgeries this offseason, with the first in mid-January and the most recent in early March.

Progressing but return timeline TBD Texans coach DeMeco Ryans reiterated Monday that Dell (knee) remains without a timetable for return, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Wilson reports that Dell is making "steady and impressive progress with major steps taken" following a pair of surgeries to repair the MCL, LCL and ACL in his left knee after he was injured in the Texans' Week 16 loss to the Chiefs. There have been rumblings that Dell could miss most, if not all, of the 2025 season. In an effort to stabilize the wide receiver position following Dell's serious injury and the departure of Stefon Diggs in free agency, the Texans acquired Christian Kirk and then used second- and third-round picks on Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, respectively.
