It looks like Tank Dell is making good progress in his injury recovery.

A video of the Houston Texans wide receiver showcased him running a route and training just three weeks after he suffered a gunshot wound in Florida.

Dell was a third-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft and played 11 games for the Texans as a rookie. He had 47 catches for 709 yards and seven touchdowns, helping the team to a 7-5 record before he went down for the season with a fractured leg.

Despite missing the final six games of the season, he finished second on the Texans in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns. He's a member of a wide receiver room that added Stefon Diggs and has a strong core that also includes Nico Collins, Robert Woods, John Metchie III and Ben Skowronek.

Houston went 10-7 and reached the Divisional Round of the playoffs last season. The team won the AFC South for the first time since 2019.
