Texans sign WR Tank Dell to rookie contract

The Houston Texans have added another member of their 2023 draft class to the payroll.

The Texans announced Tuesday they have signed third-round receiver Tank Dell to a standard four-year rookie contract.

The 5-8, 165-pound wideout from Houston caught 109 passes for 1,398 yards and 17 touchdowns in his final 13 games in college.

General manager Nick Caserio told reporters after Day 2 of the draft that the club was confident Dell would continue to have a grinding mindset.

“Each player is going to be motivated differently,” said Caserio. “You can’t change the circumstance. What you can do is try to make the most of what you have. I think Tank’s tried to do that here to this point, and his mindset probably won’t change here once he walks in our building.”
