Andre Johnson hauling in decent stats despite injury issues

Even though he’s been forced to leave the last two games with concussion and leg injuries, receiver Andre Johnson is averaging 8.3 catches during the Texans’ 2-1 start.

Johnson, 32, has 25 receptions for 258 yards. He has 45 100-yard games in his career, more than any active receiver. He’s tied for 10th on the NFL’s career list.

Johnson, who has a  bruised shin but is expected to play against Seattle on Sunday,  has 13 games left in regular season.  He needs five more to surpass Isaac Bruce (45), Jimmy Smith (46), Michael Irvin (47) and Torry Holt (47).

Fifty 100-yard games would tie Johnson with Don Maynard.

Jerry Rice is the all-time leader with 76.
