Texans' Tank Dell discusses for first time night he was shot - ESPN

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell discussed publicly for the first time the night he was shot in April and said it was a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Dell made his comments on the «Million Dollaz Worth of Game» podcast, where he appeared with teammate C.J. Stroud, in an episode that was posted this week.

It's a good vibe, and there was a lot of people that I know in there, so it was cool.
