Detroit Lions wide out Calvin Johnson is officially probable for today's Week 12 match-up, per Anwar Richardson. Megatron has battled a sore knee this season but it has not affected his game day status.
Calvin Johnson injury update: Knee is fine, a fantasy must-start
Detroit Lions receiver Calvin Johnson (knee) is officially probable for Week 12. We breakdown the fantasy implications.
Rick Stewart
Expect CJ to be active and starting versus the Houston Texans in Week 12. This could be the match-up of the day, as Calvin Johnson is a threat to take home the day's Galloping Gobbler award.
Fantasy Analysis: Calvin Johnson will be one of many elite players in today’s first match-up. Expect Megatron to raise his game and perform in front of a national stage. He is a must-start each and every week despite his opponent, so keep him in your lineup.
Going against this Houston defense, the Lions could get behind and be throwing quite a bit, so Johnson should get plenty of targets.
