News: Texans WR Andre Johnson (hamstring) did not return to practice Friday and will sit out Week 7 at Tennessee. It will be the 30-year-old’s third straight game on the sidelines since he was injured during the second quarter of Houston’s 17-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Oct. 2. Coach Gary Kubiak said Johnson is “not where he needs to be right now,” though he added Johnson is healing faster than expected.
Analysis: This is not shocking news since the Texans indicated all week that Johnson wasn't expected to return Week 7. “I’m not 100 percent, but very happy about the way I feel," Johnson said. "After what I did today, it just lets me know that everything is headed in the right direction.” He is hinting that the recovery process is going well and a Week 8 return is possible, but Fantasy owners will have to keep Johnson reserved Week 7 and track his progress next week.
