Bruise won't stop WR Johnson

Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson practiced and looked solid enough to get the go-ahead from coach Gary Kubiak. Despite a deep thigh bruise, Johnson will start against the New York Jets on Sunday.

"I think if he played today, he's not 100 percent, but not a lot of people are this time of year," Kubiak said. "He looks like he's going to be fine. He will just get some more treatment (today) and turn it loose Sunday."
