NBC Sports Houston’s Aaron Wilson reports Texans WR Tank Dell (knee) is running and cutting, but not yet 100 percent healthy.

Wilson adds that Dell has made “a lot of progress” and is “doing well in the Texans’ offseason conditioning program.” Dell missed the 2025 season after tearing three ligaments while dislocating his knee in Week 16, 2024. Roughly one month ago, Texans general manager Nick Caserio said the team hopes to have a better idea of Dell’s 2026 availability as they get through the spring. It sounds like Dell’s participation in the conditioning program and organized team activities, will be used to measure Dell’s readiness. Expect more updates in the coming weeks. If Dell can play this season, he would likely have the inside track on WR3 duties over Jaylin Noel and Xavier Hutchinson.
