Houston Texans Face Receiver Crisis After Tank Dell's Season-Altering Knee Injury

With two top wideouts sidelined, the Texans are exploring external options to bolster their depleted receiving corps ahead of the playoffs.

  • Tank Dell suffered a significant knee injury during a touchdown catch in the Texans' loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, likely ending his season.
  • This marks the second consecutive season Dell has faced a season-ending injury, following a fractured fibula in his rookie year.
  • The Texans are already without Stefon Diggs, who tore his ACL in October, leaving the team with limited experienced receivers heading into the postseason.
  • Head coach DeMeco Ryans acknowledged the team is considering external options, including recently waived players like Diontae Johnson and Odell Beckham Jr., though no moves have been made yet.
  • Houston faces the Baltimore Ravens on Christmas Day, a key matchup as the Texans aim to maintain momentum despite their depleted roster.
