Texans vs. Saints inactives: WR Tank Dell out

The Houston Texans declared their inactives ahead of their Week 6 encounter with the New Orleans Saints Sunday at 12:00 p.m. Central Time at NRG Stadium.

Houston ruled out receiver Tank Dell, which seemed obvious given he had not practiced all week while still in concussion protocol. Nevertheless a designation of questionable on Friday generated some optimism.

The Texans also declared cornerback Tavierre Thomas (hand), linebacker Denzel Perryman (wrist/hand), quarterback Case Keenum, running back Dare Ogunbowale, and guard Nick Broeker inactive.

For the Saints, J.T. Gray, Juwan Johnson, safety Lonnie Johnson, quarterback Jake Luton, A.T. Perry, Kyle Phillips, and Landon Young were all declared inactive.
