News: 2 days agoDell (hand) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Browns, while teammate Marvin Harrison (hamstring) has been ruled out.

Spin: Last week, Dell caught four passes for 104 yards and a TD in a 44-22 win over the Chargers, leading Houston in targets (nine) in his second game back from a lengthy absence. His snap share (45 percent) and route share (55 percent) were less encouraging, but Dell and Kayshon Boutte are candidates for more playing time with Harrison out for at least one week.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Dell is on the comeback trail after suffering a devastating knee injury late in 2024 that cost him the entire 2025 season. It was a tough break for the 2023 third-round pick, who finished 18th among receivers in fantasy PPG as a rookie. While he wasn't quite as productive the next season, he was on pace for career highs in catches and yardage. The undersized Dell is certainly a question mark off the major injury, but, with Jayden Higgins out for the 2026 season, he has a path back to a role behind Nico Collins at some point this year. The 26-year-old will begin on injured reserve, but he'll be a fine end-of-bench stash once activated.
