ATLANTA – Texans rookie wide receiver Tank Dell, one of their most dangerous offensive players, was ruled out due to a concussion.
Dell got hurt on a play late in the first half. He has three catches for a team-high 57 yards Sunday on four targets.

“We’ll see,” Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said when asked about Dell’s condition. “We’ll see how Tank is doing later in the week.”
A dynamic third-round draft pick from the University of Houston, Dell has caught 19 passes for 324 yards and two touchdowns.
Veteran wide receiver Robert Woods suffered a rib injury, but he finished the game and caught three passes for 30 yards on nine targets.
“It’s part of the game, a physical game,” Woods said. “Things happen. We have a great support staff in the training room. The coaches felt confident in me getting back out there, and so did I. Just being able to contribute and do what I can for the team and find a way to finish the game.”
