Andre Johnson not on injury report after missing Wednesday practice, improving fantasy value
Andre Johnson missed practice on Wednesday, but fantasy owners have no need to worry. The absence was not injury-related.

The Texans may have given their veteran wideout the day off. Whatever the reason for his absence, Johnson is healthy and ready to play on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact: Andre Johnson was once a fantasy football machine, but the Texans’ run-first offense has held him back this season. Houston is wisely monitoring his snap count to keep him fresh and healthy for the playoffs.
Against the Buffalo Bills, Johnson is a definite start for fantasy owners. The only thing that could hold him back is if the Texans pull out to an early lead right away and have no need to pass the ball.
