“He sustained a minor wound but has been released from the hospital and he is in good spirits,” the team said in a statement.
“We are in contact with him and his family, but we ask that you please respect his privacy.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved in the incident.”
The Seminole County Sheriff’s Office said 10 people suffered non-life-threatening injuries in a post-midnight shooting at a nightlife venue called Cabana Live in an unincorporated section of Sanford patrolled by deputies.
A 16-year-old boy was arrested in connection with the attack, the sheriff’s office said.
The violence started with an argument, it said, before shots rang out. A security guard working at the venue quickly apprehended a suspect, the office said, and turned him over to two deputies who rushed to the scene.
The venue said the violence took place during a private event. In a statement, it called the attack an “isolated incident.”
“We are cooperating with the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office and praying for all those involved,” it said.
Dell was drafted from the University of Houston. In his 2023 rookie season, he had 709 yards receiving and seven touchdowns in 11 games.
