Texans' Tank Dell: Working back at his own pace
Coach DeMeco Ryans said Monday that he's unsure if Dell (knee) will play during the Texans' preseason slate, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. "With Tank, he's on his own plan," Ryans noted. "Whatever that entails, geared toward what's best for Tank Dell."
Dell didn't play in Friday's preseason game against the Chargers, which comes as no surprise because he's been limited to individual drills after missing the entire 2025 campaign following a December 2024 play in which he dislocated his left kneecap while also tearing the ACL and MCL in that knee. The Texans' next exhibition is Thursday versus the Raiders, and Houston opens the regular season Sunday, Sept. 13 against the Bills.

Texans' Tank Dell: Involved in full-team drills Monday
Dell (knee) participated in "full-team drills" Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Dell practiced in pads last week for the first time since injuring his knee, and after initially being limited to individual drills he has advanced to team work. His status for Week 1 remains uncertain, but if he can avoid any setbacks there's reason to believe he'll be out there when the regular season gets underway.

Texans' Tank Dell: Week 1 status unclear
Dell said, "I'm taking it one day at a time" when asked Friday about his potential availability for Week 1 of the regular season versus Buffalo, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN reports.
Dell practiced with pads Wednesday for the first time in training camp, though at this point he's limited to individual drills. The Texans have so far not committed to a timeframe for when Dell will be ready to play during the regular season, but the good news is that doctors have deemed his knee "100 percent stable." When Dell gets into a contest, it will be his first game action since he tore multiple knee ligaments and dislocated his kneecap against the Chiefs in Week 16 of the 2024 campaign.

Texans' Tank Dell: Limited to individual drills
Dell (knee) was limited to individual drills Wednesday while wearing pads for the first time this summer, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
It's both a sign of progress and a reminder that the Texans want to slow-play things after Dell suffered major knee/leg injuries in each of his first two NFL seasons. He still has a shot to be ready in September, but his initial role could be small even if the team still views him as a potential top-three WR down the line.

Texans' Tank Dell: Practicing with pads for first time
Dell (knee) is wearing pads at practice Wednesday for the first time this year, Jane Slater of NFL Network reports.
Dell won't be a full practice participant, and there's still been no report of him gaining clearance for contact, but this at least represents another step in the right direction. Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports that Dell went through individual drills at the beginning of practice.

Texans' Tank Dell: Being ramped up
Dell (knee) will be held out of full-team reps to open training camp, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Dell's limitations are no surprise, though it is encouraging that he was able to avoid the active/PUP list to kick off camp. Wilson reports that Dell will work on the side during Wednesday's practice and for the early portion of training camp. It remains to be seen when Dell will be cleared for full-team work, but the wideout's recovery from his multi-ligament knee injury continues to look encouraging.

Texans' Tank Dell: Avoids PUP list to start camp
Dell (knee) won't start training camp on the PUP list, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
While it remains to be seen how much Dell will be able to do in practice once camp starts, avoiding the PUP list a good sign for the wideout as he makes his way back from a serious knee injury. The 2023 third-rounder hasn't seen game action since Week 16 of the 2024 season, so he figures to be eased in slowly. For now, Dell remains a very speculative fantasy option, but he could move up draft boards in the coming weeks if he looks sharp in training camp and re-establishes his chemistry with C.J. Stroud.

Texans' Tank Dell: Shows good progress in minicamp
Dell (knee) was limited during the Texans' minicamp that ended Thursday, but he has been "running and cutting without setbacks," Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Dell continues to rehab from the devastating knee injury that cost him all of the 2025 season. While he wasn't a full participant during Houston's just-completed minicamp, he did catch passes in team drills and worked off to side. The Texans' goal is to have Dell continue to ramp up over the summer so that he can increase his activity level during training camp. However, the team isn't providing a concrete timeline for when the wideout will be fully ready to participate in practices or play in games.

Texans' Tank Dell: Not participating in OTAs
Dell (knee) is not participating in OTAs this week, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
Dell is on the field in uniform, but he's not sporting a helmet, as the Texans are taking a "patient, long term approach" with the wide receiver this offseason, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. The 26-year-old has been sidelined since tearing multiple knee ligaments in Week 16 of the 2024 season. While Dell may not participate in offseason workouts, there's a good chance he's on the field at training camp with an eye toward Week 1 of the regular season. If healthy, Dell should occupy a spot in three-wide sets alongside Nico Collins and Jayden Higgins, with Jaylin Noel and Xavier Hutchinson available as sub-package wideouts.
