In a display of the strong culture within the Houston Texans organization, head coach DeMeco Ryans made a statement after the team’s 27-19 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, prioritizing the well-being of his players over the game’s outcome. The Texans, who have already secured their playoff spot as back-to-back AFC South champions, were seeking a significant win late in the season but ultimately fell short.
The game saw the Texans lead 10-7 in the first half, but two injuries to quarterback C.J. Stroud and a knee injury to star wide receiver Tank Dell proved to be significant challenges. Despite their efforts, the team was unable to regain the lead, and the Chiefs secured an eight-point victory.
Following the game, Coach Ryans addressed his team, but instead of discussing the loss, he focused on the update on Tank Dell’s status. “The first thing I spoke about to the team is opening up about Tank (Dell) and the update on his status. We are a family and we are in this thing together,” Ryans said, emphasizing the importance of the team’s camaraderie and support for their injured teammate.
The Texans have been plagued by injuries throughout the season, particularly in the wide receiver corps, with players like Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs missing time due to injuries. The latest injury to Tank Dell adds to the team’s concerns, and Coach Ryans’ message serves as a reminder of the team’s commitment to supporting each other both on and off the field.
