Texans Pro Bowl running back Joe Mixon revealed what he did while he watched in horror as Tank Dell suffered a gruesome injury.
Dell was carted off Saturday’s game against the Chiefs after suffering a knee injury.
Before that, his teammates came over to see about his condition.
Dell caught a 30-yard touchdown but, in the process, had his knee rolled into by a teammate.
Joe Mixon says he could do nothing but pray for his friend and teammate as he was screaming in pain.
Prayers:
#Texans Joe Mixon says that he prayed over WR Tank Dell as he was lying on the field:“When you got your brother right there screaming in pain, and there is nothing you can do… that sh*t sucks.”
❤️🙏

Dell was taken to a University of Kansas Medical Center, just outside of Arrowhead Stadium.
The second-year receiver had tallied six catches for 98 yards and a touchdown before suffering the injury during the early stages of the third quarter.
Dell has had quite a few months.
He notably suffered a fractured fibula in 2023, as he was limited to 11 games last season.
He was also shot earlier this year.
Tank Dell has 51 catches for 667 yards and three touchdowns on the season.

Now, his season is over.
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.”
