Texans' Tank Dell sustains gruesome leg injury, leaving teammates in tears

Almost immediately after making the catch, the second-year receiver remained down in obvious pain. He appeared to have sustained a serious knee injury while getting caught up with teammate Jared Wayne and a Chiefs defender.

Texans players gathered around Dell and prayed over him. Stroud was brought to tears by Dell's injury. 

According to ESPN, Dell's left leg was mobilized in a brace. He was placed on a stretcher and taken off the field in a covered medical cart. He was reportedly taken to an area hospital by ambulance. 

Dell was officially ruled out with a knee injury. A season-ending injury would be the second in as many years for the young receiver. 

His rookie campaign was cut short when he fractured a fibula in a Week 13 game against the Denver Broncos last season. 

Dell entered Saturday's game with 45 receptions for 569 yards and two touchdowns.
