Dell left the game with 3:53 to go in the first quarter after he rolled his ankle on the Dameon Pierce rushing touchdown. He had to be carted off the field. Dell had not registered a catch when he left the game.

Tank Dell #WeAreTexans
Hard to see but his left foot/ankle gets trapped and rolled up. With him being carted off, unfortunately it may be an ankle fracture. Hopefully it’s just a bad high ankle sprain pic.twitter.com/a5wX2flO5k

Without Dell, the Texans will lean on wideouts Nico Collins, John Metchie III and Noah Brown, who missed the past two games with a knee injury. Houston also don’t have tight end Dalton Schultz in the contest against the Denver Broncos.
Houston led 13-3 at halftime when Dell had officially been ruled out.
