"The Texans say they expect receiver Andre Johnson to be ready to play against Buffalo on Sunday, but after revising their postgame evaluation from chest contusion to lung contusion Monday, the truth is no one knows.
Coach Gary Kubiak doesn't know if Johnson, who has 38 catches for 634 yards and four touchdowns, will be able to practice this week when the Texans prepare for the game against the Bills at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
Johnson, 28, doesn't have to practice to be able to play.
"He's going to be day-to-day as we go into this week," Kubiak said Monday. "They'll do some tests on him each day as we go through this week, but I think we're fortunate, and, hopefully, he'll be ready to go against Buffalo. They (doctors) feel good about it (and), it looks like he's going to be fine."
Johnson was initially injured on the first of his two catches in Sunday's 24-21 win over San Francisco that elevated the Texans' record to 4-3. It was an 18-yard gain on the first series of the second quarter. "
