HOUSTON (AP) — Houston wide receiver Andre Johnson is nursing an injured right hamstring and his availability for Sunday’s game against Oakland is uncertain as the team seeks other medical opinions.

Coach Gary Kubiak said Monday that Johnson will “miss some time,” though he said that could range from 3-4 days to a “few weeks.”

Johnson went down without getting touched in the second quarter of Houston’s 17-10 win over Pittsburgh on Sunday. He had tests after the game and Kubiak says the team evaluating the injury. Kubiak says the team will seek “a couple of different” opinions over the next two days.

Kubiak also says backup running back Ben Tate is day to day with a groin injury. Houston (3-1) plays Oakland (2-2) on Sunday.
