Tank Dell had a pretty tumultuous April when he was caught in a gunfight at a nightclub in Sanford, Florida and was left with minor wounds after being shot amidst all the chaos.

Three weeks after being shot at a nightclub, Tank Dell is back and there’s video to prove it.

A clip came out on Tuesday showing Dell catching passes from CJ Stroud and running routes with zero signs whatsoever that he took a bullet on April 28th when 10 people were wounded at the Cabana Live in Sanford. I’ve never been shot before. (shocker, I know) but I have to imagine if I’d been shot at the end of April I wouldn’t be running around the field looking this agile:

He was front and center at practice. Texans media and fans seem surprised as the rest of us that a guy who was shot in a nightclub incident where 10 people were injured is already back on the field;

Absolutely does not look like a guy who got shot to me, but what do I know?

At the time of the shooting, it was reported Dell only suffered “minor injuries” but it was never specified where he was shot or what the severity of “minor” was. The medical definition of a “minor injury” is simply that it wasn’t life threatening but could have still severely held him back. That certainly seems to not have been the case after seeing Tank Dell sprinting around the field.
