HOUSTON (AP) — Houston star receiver Andre Johnson will play against Tennessee on Sunday after missing the last three games because of a strained left hamstring.
Coach Gary Kubiak said Johnson will be on a play count, but wasn’t sure how many. Johnson has played only six games this season after missing six straight with a right hamstring injury that required surgery.
Kubiak says he wants Johnson to play so he’ll be ready to contribute for Houston next weekend in its first playoff game.
The AFC South champions have lost two straight heading into Sunday’s game. While the outcome can’t change their playoff position, they hope to build momentum for the postseason.
