Tank Dell Misses Another Practice

Tank Dell Misses Another Practice

one year ago

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Tank Dell (concussion) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Dell is making progress from a head injury he suffered in the Week 5 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, but he's not expected to play this weekend against the New Orleans Saints. The Texans have their bye in Week 7, so Dell will have extra to heal up before a Week 8 matchup on the road in Carolina against the Panthers if he's inactive this weekend. Robert Woods (ribs) is also banged up and could be questionable to play in Week 6, so John Metchie III and Xavier Hutchinson could have bigger roles against New Orleans behind Nico Collins. Dell has 19 catches for 324 yards and two touchdowns on 28 targets in his first five NFL games. He has intriguing long-term upside with quarterback C.J. Stroud.
