Instead of just posting on the overexagerating thread I had to sift through to get relevant info, here is some info for people who don't have time to read hours of useless posts

Andre Johnson, who hurt his left knee Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, is doubtful to play for the Texans when the team plays the Indianapolis Colts this Sunday at Reliant Stadium. The Texans had an MRI done on Johnson's knee Monday morning and it revealed a sprain.

"I would say that he is doubtful for that football game," Kubiak said. "We'll know more in the next couple of days. There was no swelling, but there's definitely a sprain there. It's a concern right now."

The initial diagnosis was that Johnson had strained his posterior cruciate ligament. He hurt it during a big hit that followed his last catch — a 10-yard grab - with 11:58 to go in the game.

"He has a knee sprain," Kubiak said. "That's the good news and the bad news. We feel fortunate. Andre is going to be fine. Is he going to be fine in one week? Or is he going to be fine in four weeks? We're still in the evaluation stage. We don't know."

Johnson currently ranks fourth in the league with 262 receiving yards on 14 catches. The next most productive receiver on the team is rookie Jacoby Jones with 33 receiving yards on two catches. Kevin Walter has two catches for 17 yards.

If Johnson can't go on Sunday, Andre' Davis will be activated.

 
As long as you doubt it, I'll take solice in that
I am an optimist. If you read in that column you see a few things.1) the MRI was completed2) There is a sprain3) They are going to see how he feels through the week and that is what they are saying they are waiting for. He could muscle through it and play Sunday, we never know. I for one am not getting down and going to keep fingers crossed.
 
Please change the title. Kubiak is not setting a range of 4 weeks that he may miss. He's saying they have no clue whether it will be 1 week or 4 weeks or any other amount of time.

Already read the article in the first AJ post. Do we really need another?

You "optimistically" left out the key quote. Maybe one, maybe 4, [unsaid] maybe the year. [/unsaid] I'm not optimistic.
 
Sounds like it will be much closer to four weeks than one week. Being a Johnson owner I don`t want to see him rushed back..let the big guy get healthy.
