Podcast appearances and mentions of Nick Caserio

The last time Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell played in a regular-season NFL game was on December 21, 2024, against the Kansas City Chiefs..

Texans OTAs are over, and the team is heading into minicamp with plenty of reasons for optimism — along with several questions that cannot be answered until the pads come on. Seth Payne breaks down the biggest takeaways from the spring, starting with C.J. Stroud's approach to the offseason and the signs that Houston is placing a greater emphasis on pre-snap communication, protection checks and the details that could help the offense take a major step forward. Seth also discusses the Texans' options to replace E.J. Speed, the encouraging progress Tank Dell has made in his recovery, the lack of explosive plays during OTAs, Marlin Klein's hamstring injury and the uncertainty surrounding a completely revamped offensive line. Plus, why the real test of this team will come in training camp when Houston's offense finally gets a chance to prove it can hold its own against one of the NFL's best defenses — and what Nick Caserio's comments about “Tier 1 Texans” reveal about the standard DeMeco Ryans has established in Houston.
