Texans wide receiver Tank Dell suffered a “significant” left knee injury that was said to be a dislocated knee cap on a play Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs while catching a touchdown.
In the aftermath of his injury, his teammates were emotional and visibly upset on the field.
Dell was eventually placed on a stretcher and driven in a covered medical cart off the field, and then he was taken to the hospital.
He had stayed social media quiet since his injury.
That changed on Sunday.
Tank Dell shared a powerful video on his TikTok account.

We can only hope the Texans star makes a speedy and full recovery.
Dell has 667 receiving yards and three touchdowns on the season.
He had six catches for 98 yards and the touchdown when he was hurt with 11:40 left in the third quarter.
Tank Dell Will Need Strong Mental Health to Make It Through Latest Pushback
Texans wide receiver Tank Dell suffered a serious-looking leg injury after scoring a touchdown in the team’s Week 16 game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Dell’s teammates were distraught after watching the second-year wideout go down.
They know just as well as him that he has yet another long recovery ahead of him.
Dell has been dealt some extremely bad cards when it comes to injuries in the NFL. His rookie year ended in 2023 with a broken leg, and he was wounded in a shooting this past April.
Hopefully, Tank Dell will have strong mental health going forward.
