Andre Johnson is OK, just a dislocated finger. He'll be fine, eats spinach

Newsflash: AJ's pinky huts: 1000 sudden heart attacks in Houston.


One man dies, cuz one lifeflight chopper is used instead for AJ's pinky. :wadepalm:

Women all over Houston offer "comfort" for AJ's pinky. :fans:

Foster prays to Mollech for AJ's immodest hand stiffy. AJ gives him other finger.
 
Hell reach out to Moss.

No thanks. He'd check out the first time he had to wait on one of Schaub's ducks.
Where's TJ Housh? I thought he was a free agent too. I know he didn't have the greatest year last season but is he washed up at this point? Don't follow the Ravens enough to have formed an opinion.

I'd still take a chance on Moss because if Johnson goes down things would get ugly in a hurry.

Texans Pro Bowl WR Andre Johnson left morning practice with a dislocated left index finger; his status is uncertain.

If it was me I'd hold AJ out of practice for a few days. Not like he needs training camp.
 
If Jones has to take over as the number one receiver at any time during the season then it might be over.

Moss retired-no playing for him.

You know the one name I have not heard around here is Steve Smith (Giants) he's still a free agent...

What? You don't read my posts?

I've posted several times that I'd like to get Smith in here even though there are some Qs about his health. I expect him to go back to the Giants, though. And I'm not sure we've got the cap space for him.
 
Just in: Andre Johnson will be unable to do this :fingergun: for 7-10 days after dislocating his left index finger.

After injurying 6 tendons in my left hand on two different occasions... no, I would not. In fact, I'd probably welcome the ACL. It is amazing how little someone can get done with injured hands. Its even pretty degrading sometimes.

Depends on What exactly youre doing with the hand :)
 
It was bloody. Dislocated or compound fractured? I notice today's Comical photo essay shows him catching a ball with bare hands and his gloves in his helmet looking like a frilled lizard or something. I could link it but I'm too lazy.

Don't tell me he got hurt farting around without wearing his gloves. This gets the Florida Tag just because that's where he's from. Either it's the Florida tag or the Karankawa curse, take your pick cuz we all know there's a curse.
 
We got lucky. If it was me running the show, I'd practice AJ maybe twice a week.....and have a beer cooler and cheerleaders on the sideline

AJ at this afternoon's practice

I love how AJ is awesome and doesnt talk yet he has almost every reporter around him, while Eric Winston will rant for an hour if you ask him what his favorite color is, and he has one person trying to talk to him lol. And that guy is probably asking him about Dre bc he couldnt get through the crowd.

And on a side note, I love the replacements. Keanu Reeves' best performance of his career.

Johnson said the bone in his index finger broke the skin. Didn't require stitches. "I just popped it right back in," he said

As if there wasnt already enough evidence, AJ is the man.
 
Here's the updated info.

Head Coach Gary Kubiak
(on WR Andre Johnson's injury) "He's fine. He dislocated his finger obviously, so we took him to the hospital this morning. He's back, has it bandaged up and probably is going to miss a day or two of practice until we make sure there's no infection and it calms down. He's fine. He's going to be okay."

(on if he is relieved that WR Andre Johnson will be back practicing in a couple days) "Very much so. I wasn't over there so I was concerned about what had happened. I think we got lucky."


(on if there are any thoughts on keeping WR Andre Johnson out longer for safety) "They say he's fine and he can go. Andre (Johnson) can go tomorrow, knowing how he is. I'll just listen to the doctors and when he's ready to go, he'll go. It's an opportunity for these younger guys to take some reps."

WR Andre Johnson
(on if his dislocated finger scared him) "It wasn't scary, it's just a dislocated finger, I've had worse. I don't think I'm worried about a finger keeping me from missing anything."

(on the timeframe for him to catch passes again) "It'll just be a couple of days because my bone broke the skin, so it'll be a couple of days, I didn't have to get any stitches or anything like that. Soon as I felt it pop, I felt it out of place and I popped it right back in. I didn't know the bone had broke the skin until I took my glove off so I really wasn't in a lot of pain or anything like that. It was just more concern about the bleeding and everything like that. I went and got it checked out and everything is fine so once it heals I'll be right back out there."

(on the pass that dislocated his finger) "The ball just hit the tip of my finger and I didn't realize it at first; I just went to make a fist and my index finger didn't feel normal so when I looked at it looked kind of crazy and I just popped it back in."

(on the news that he was carted off the field) "I heard about that when I got back to the stadium I was eating lunch and saw it on ESPN that I was carted off the field and stuff like that. I had a lot of text messages and people asking me if I was ok. I'm fine, it's just a finger. I've played with a bum ankle I don't think a finger will keep me out I'm just letting it heal up."
 
I will add that for someone who wasn't in pain, he sure did have a look of pain on his face.

Dude needs Jules' wallet from Pulp Fiction.
