Houston Texans star Tank Dell could be out for a significant period after suffering what appeared to be a horrific injury against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday.
The wide receiver completed a huge play for the visiting team, making an incredible catch in the end zone off an equally remarkable pass from C.J. Stroud. But he got hurt while going to ground, colliding with a teammate and immediately holding his knee.

Things Really Don’t Look Good For Tank Dell
If anyone deserves a break, it would be Dell. Heck, the kid’s even been shot since entering the league.
But, while everyone hopes the injury isn’t as bad as it looks, photos of a bone popping out of his knee have since surfaced on social media.
“Really hope this is not as bad as it looks but this looks horrific. Prayers for Tank Dell,” an X user wrote.

We can only wish him a speedy recovery at this point.
Kansas City Chiefs President Forced To Address Rumors That Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Relationship Is Just A “Marketing Strategy” For The Team

There’s a conspiracy theory for just about everything, including bizarre ones relating to the highly publicized relationship between Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
The three-time Super Bowl champion has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift for over a year. Their rumored romance was confirmed when Swift attended the Chiefs’ Week 3, 2023 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.
Kelce’s romance with Swfit has been a giant win for the Chiefs and the NFL, too. She has brought plenty more attention to the NFL and contributed to the Chiefs’ skyrocketing popularity worldwide.
Naturally, conspiracy theorists believe the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance is simply a marketing ploy to help the Chiefs and the league. But Chiefs president Mark Donovan finally addressed the ridiculous rumor during an appearance on NBC’s “Squawk Box” program:
“I’d love to say that it was a marketing strategy, but it is an authentic relationship. And we’re happy to have it, and it’s been nothing but good for us.
I think the best thing I can say about the whole relationship and the impact it’s had on us is, Taylor Swift is an authentic member of the Kansas City Chiefs kingdom. She’s an authentic fan and that matters to our fans and our fan base and to matters to us and we try to respect that.”
