Tank Dell agrees to reworked Texans deal while recovering from knee injury

Texans wide receiver Tank Dell agreed to a revised one-year, $1.7 million contract for the 2026 season, including $1 million guaranteed and nearly $2 million in salary-cap savings for Houston. Dell, 26, is on injured reserve while recovering from the severe knee injury he suffered in 2024 and will miss at least the first four games of the season. He has not played since the injury and is expected to follow an individualized recovery plan before potentially returning in October. The deal is the final year of his rookie contract, giving Dell an opportunity to demonstrate he is healthy enough to earn another contract after returning. In two active seasons, he has recorded 98 receptions for 1,376 yards and 10 touchdowns.
