The swashbuckling 24-year-old Tank Dell has made the tremors felt with his exceptional performances throughout the regular season. The WR has broken a record in terms of securing receiving yards and touchdowns and is on his way to becoming a legendary rookie for the Texans, as he is just on the cusp of surpassing one of the legends himself. Tony Holzman shared the update on X. The post stated “Tank Dell has the most receiving TD by a rookie (6)” in the team’s history.

Also, the young find is just 62 yards from the all-time Texans record for most receiving yards by a rookie. The record now stands with the legend Bill Groman and has stood the test of time from the 1960s. The records are meant to be broken, and this time it may as well be the turn of a rookie to hold the baton once again after a gap of more than sixty years.
