Texans wide receiver Tank Dell sustained minor wounds in a shooting in Sanford, Florida on Saturday night, the team announced in a statement Sunday.
According to Houston, Dell “has been released from the hospital and is in good spirits.”
“We are in contact with him and his family and will provide more updates when appropriate but we ask that you please respect his privacy at this time,” the team’s statement continued. “Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved in the incident.”
Dell, 24, broke out with the Texans as a rookie last year with 47 receptions for 709 yards and seven touchdowns in 11 games played. He suffered a fractured fibula in December, knocking him out for the remainder of the season and Houston’s postseason run.
