</TD></TR><TR><TD class=vaLink>The Texans limited eight players in Wednesday's practice, perhaps indicating that Johnson's scaled-back reps were part of a plan or an overall maintenance day. We expect to see him start against the Brent Grimes-less Falcons.

Andre Johnson - WR - Texans </TD></TR><TR><TD>

</TD></TR><TR><TD class=bodyCopy>Coach Gary Kubiak said at his Monday press conference that Andre Johnson's hamstring injury is "mild," and the Texans are calling him "day to day."</TD></TR><TR><TD>

</TD></TR><TR><TD class=vaLink>Kubiak said the Texans feel "very fortunate" Johnson escaped a serious injury. Johnson won't necessarily play in Week 14, but it sounds like a two-game absence might be a worst case scenario. Before going down Sunday, Johnson had 97 yards on four grabs. He would've easily topped the century mark if not for one glaring drop that may have been partially attributable to rust.

<TABLE border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%"><TBODY><TR><TD class=bodyCopy>Texans coach Gary Kubiak said Andre Johnson (hamstring) "did more than jog" in practice Wednesday, but "still has a ways to go."</TD></TR><TR><TD>

</TD></TR><TR><TD class=vaLink>Although he's officially day-to-day, Johnson is extremely unlikely to play against the Panthers. Johnson hinted earlier on Wednesday that he's targeting a Week 17 return. If you're really hurting for a roster spot in a re-draft league that concludes in Week 16, it's probably safe to drop your WR1.

</TD></TR><TR><TD class=vaLink>It sounds like it'd be a tuneup kind of appearance, getting Johnson "ready for his first playoff appearance." Johnson insists he could play in Week 16 if the Texans allowed him, but they're shutting him down for one more week.
