I didn't think Andre Johnson's knee was a huge factor when I ranked him quite high in my initial receiver rankings, coming to a newsstand near you in three weeks. He missed seven games last year, but only missed three in his four year career before that. Furthermore, he had never required surgery before to our knowledge. Until now.

Perhaps I'm a bit biased as an AJ believer, but I don't see this as a major concern if the Texans are telling the truth. During the season, players return from this surgery in two weeks. In the offseason, Johnson will sit out a month. It's possible the Texans are fudging the severity of the surgery, but I doubt it considering they gave out a timeline for his return and he was at practice Monday.
