Worst-case scenario for Andre is five weeks

While there were no new developments in the progress of Andre Johnson and his sprained left knee, head coach Gary Kubiak said the worst-case scenario would sideline the Texans' Pro Bowl receiver for five weeks. "That would definitely be the worst scenario," Kubiak told the Houston Chronicle. "And I'm very optimistic, especially with a guy like him who's a real hard worker and very well-conditioned player. If anybody should make it back quicker than the doctors think that he can, it's probably that guy. So I'm going to be on the optimistic side." Johnson is expected to have his knee re-examined Friday, but as of now the Texans have ruled him out of Sunday's AFC South showdown with the Colts.
