Johnson recognized

Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson is being honored this season as one of the Home Depot’s NFL Neighborhood MVPs. The program will honor 17 players who are making positive impacts in their communities through charitable programs and contributions.

Each of the players honored, including Johnson, will have a playground built in his local community and receive a donation to the charity of his choice. One of those players also will be honored at the Super Bowl as the Home Depot NFL Neighborhood MVP. The overall winner will receive a $25,000 donation to the charity of his choice.
