The Kansas City Chiefs and the Houston Texans are rivals, and that was on display Saturday as KC notched another NFL victory by a 27-19 score over the visitors.

But at the same time, the NFL is a brotherhood. So a chilling scene that includes an injury, a break in the action and an ambulance ride to the hospital in a sense impacts all involved.

In this case, all eyes are on wide receiver Tank Dell of the Texans after he suffered what appears to be a serious knee injury.

The incident occurred in the third quarter as the speedly Dell grabbed a 30-yard touchdown pass from CJ Stroud to make this a one-point game. There was a collision of sorts when teammate Jared Wayne bumped into Dell while diving for the ball.

To their credit, medical staff immediately rushed onto the field to assist Dell and to tend to his hurt knee.

Dell was eventually carted off of the field and transported to a Kansas City-area hospital … and a video was shared on social media of the ambulance leaving the stadium shortly after Dell sustained the injury.

An assortment of Chiefs players, led by Patrick Mahomes, sent well-wishes to the fallen player.

The second-year receiver has dealt with injury challenges before. He broke his leg during his rookie campaign in the 2023 season. … and he was also shot in the leg at a private event in Sanford, Florida, during the offseason. 

And yes, this looks like another obstacle for him.

Dell finished the day with six receptions, 98 yards, and a touchdown, meaning he will likely end the 2024 season – assuming this injury is as severe as it seems – with 51 receptions, 667 yards, and three touchdowns.
