Andre Johnson

The Texans hosted some astronauts at practice. They made the trip from NASA to the Methodist Training Center to make a presentation to receiver Andre Johnson.  

Last week, in a video for Chron.com, Andre Johnson made an impassioned plea for Gary Kubiak to return. He listed the reasons he believes Kubiak should be back.  

Andre Johnson said two weeks ago that his goal was to play the five best games of his career to help end Houston's season on a high note  

Andre Johnson has given his talents to the Texans and his time and money to charity during his time in Houston. All Johnson wants in return is a trip to the playoffs with the team that drafted him.

When you think of the Houston Texans, what's the first thought that comes to mind?  If you're an optimist, maybe you think of Andre Johnson or the explosive offense.  Maybe you think of Mario Williams and Demeco Ryans becoming foundational pieces of the defense.  If you're a little less optimistic, maybe you think of missed opportunities and mediocrity.  And if you're one of those wacko Texans fans, and I know you're out there, you still think...

Steve Slaton scored two touchdowns and the Houston Texans built a big lead before holding on for a 24-21 win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. The Texans led 21-0 at halftime, then withstood a rally led by backup quarterback Alex Smith. Eugene Wilson's interception on fourth down halted the 49ers' last-gasp drive.  

Former presidents George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush are attending Sunday's 49ers-Texans game in Houston. The Bushes walked onto the field at Reliant Stadium about a half-hour before the kickoff to rousing cheers. Texans punter Matt Turk and kicker Kris Brown shook hands with both former presidents.

Coach Gary Kubiak says Johnson will undergo several blood tests this week to make sure he is recovering properly and doctors believe he will be fine. He was injured when he took a hit in the lower back in the second quarter of Houston's 24-21 win over the...  

A month ago, safety Bernard Pollard was looking for a job. The Houston Texans gave him a shot and it's paid off. Pollard has made 19 tackles in three starts and become a key piece of Houston's improving defense. The Texans had an idea of what they were getting in Pollard with defensive backs coach David Gibbs having worked with him in Kansas City for the last three seasons.  

Houston allowed 615 yards rushing in its first three games. The Texans have gotten a lot stingier since then. In the last three games, Houston surrendered just 135 rushing yards. On Sunday, the Texans held NFL rushing leader Cedric Benson to a season-low 44 yards in a 28-17 win over Cincinnati. Now the Texans will try and keep it up against San Francisco and running back Frank Gore as they seek...  

Matt Schaub has thrown for at least 300 yards in four of his last five games and leads the NFL with 14 touchdown passes. His progress this season has been encouraging, but the Texans believe his development is far from over. They think he can do much more. "He's got great command of what we're doing," coach Gary Kubiak said.  

Houston allowed 21 points and almost 300 yards in the first half of a loss to Arizona last weekend. The Texans turned it around after halftime, giving up just 43 yards and holding the Cardinals scoreless. Now the question is which defense will show up Sunday against the Bengals. "I can see how people could be confused," defensive end Antonio Smith said.  

Houston quarterback Matt Schaub could play on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks despite dislocating his non-throwing shoulder this weekend. Coach Gary Kubiak says Schaub has "good chance" of playing this weekend. Schaub was injured on the first play of Sunday's loss to the Jaguars but returned in the second quarter and finished the game.  

After starting 5-3 and being in the thick of a playoff race, the Texans have lost four in a row. They can't win close games in the end. As a result, fans and media are howling for coach Gary Kubiak's scalp. The latest close defeat—23-18 at Jacksonville—left the Texans 5-7 with Seattle coming to Reliant Stadium before a trip to St. Louis. Speculation about Kubiak being fired is reverberating around the city, and he's not immune to it. Still, he...  

The Houston Texans lost their fourth straight game and are likely out of the playoff hunt for the eighth season in a row after another close loss to Jacksonville this weekend. Now this long-suffering team has to figure out a way to salvage something positive out of the season with four games to go. "We need something good to happen to us," coach Gary Kubiak said.  

Quarterback Matt Schaub has returned to Houston's game at Jacksonville after getting treatment for a shoulder injury. Schaub hurt his left shoulder on the Texans' first play Sunday. After getting sacked by Derrick Harvey, Schaub stayed on the ground as trainers rushed onto the field. Schaub eventually walked off without any help, but spent just a few minutes on the bench before heading to...  

No matter how many fans show up, the Jacksonville Jaguars continue finding ways to win at home. David Garrard threw two touchdown passes, Josh Scobee kicked three field goals and the Jaguars stayed in the AFC wild-card hunt with a 23-18 victory over injury-depleted Houston on Sunday. It was Jacksonville's fifth straight victory at home and came in front of an announced crowd of 42,079 -- the...  

Houston Texans running back Steve Slaton is inactive for the game at Jacksonville on Sunday. Slaton missed practice Friday with an injured right shoulder. He has struggled with the injury for about three weeks and has been experiencing numbness in his right thumb. Chris Brown is expected to start in his place.  

Just hours after the Jacksonville Jaguars returned from another disappointing West Coast trip, quarterback David Garrard and tight end Marcedes Lewis called a meeting for the entire offense. They talked about accountability, the need to score more points, and the playoff picture. They made this point clear: If the Jaguars (6-5) don't beat the Houston Texans (5-6) on Sunday, they have little...  

High school senior Shaina Carthon is unlikely to ever step onto a football field. Still, Carthon, who is deaf, realized she shouldn't limit her dreams after hearing Houston Texans rookie Connor Barwin share his story of making it to the NFL despite being born almost completely deaf. "He inspired me," she said through an interpreter.  

Houston Texans rookie cornerback Glover Quin will miss this weekend's game against Jacksonville with what he called concussion symptoms. Quin, who has started eight games this season, said he isn't sure if he had a concussion and if he did it was a mild one. Still, the Texans chose to sit him after he had headaches earlier this week.  

The Texans built a 17-point lead against Indianapolis at home for the second straight year only to let it slip away. Sunday's game highlighted a key difference between the undefeated AFC South champion Colts and a Houston team that has chased them since joining the league in 2002. The Colts always believe they can win and usually do, especially in building a 15-1 record against Houston.  

Houston Texans defensive end Antonio Smith has been fined $12,500 for a hit on Indianapolis tight end Dallas Clark. Smith was given the fine for hitting Clark away from the play on an interception return by Brian Cushing in Houston's 35-27 loss to the Colts on Sunday. Smith, who is in his first season in Houston after five years with the Cardinals, was given a 15-yard unnecessary roughness...  

Two good wins, tougher defense and the Houston Texans are 4-3. They are still looking uphill at the undefeated Colts in their division. But with a trip to lowly Buffalo this week, the chance of winning three straight for just the second time in franchise history seems possible. The Texans beat Cincinnati last week before jumping out to an early lead and holding on for a 24-21 win over the 49ers on...  

Maurice Jones-Drew enjoyed his last game against the Texans. The Jaguars' stalwart back ran for 119 yards and tied a season-high with three touchdowns to lead Jacksonville to a 31-24 win over Houston earlier this season. Making sure that doesn't happen again will be key Sunday if the Texans hope to stop their losing streak at three and make a late push for the playoffs.  

Houston Texans safety Eugene Wilson will have season-ending surgery to repair a pair of broken toes on his left foot. Wilson has started eight games for the Texans this season and has 29 tackles, a forced fumble and two interceptions. He will be replaced in the lineup by John Busing. The Texans signed veteran safety Brian Russell, recently released by the Jaguars, to fill Wilson's spot on the...  

While seemingly everyone is buzzing about Indianapolis and its perfect 10-0 record, the Colts are actively avoiding the discussion. "It's certainly something that we haven't talked about," Peyton Manning said. "We don't talk about it around here. All we talk about is the next opponent.  

The Houston Texans say someone has been posing as rookie linebacker Brian Cushing on Twitter and tweeting under his name. They say the user BrianCushing56 is not Cushing or anyone from the Texans organization. The Texans issued a statement concerning the impostor after a tweet criticizing the officiating in Monday night's 20-17 loss to Tennessee appeared Tuesday afternoon.  

The Houston Texans don't have time to wallow in their second straight difficult loss. They have just six days to prepare for the 10-0 Indianapolis Colts and need a win to hold on to their playoff hopes. Coach Gary Kubiak said he's glad his team has a quick turnaround so the Texans (5-5) can put this defeat behind them.  

The Houston Texans were averaging almost 28 points when they went on a three-game winning streak earlier this season. Since then the offense has slowed down and managed just 17 points in each of the last two close losses. The Texans know they'll need to get it rolling again this week to have any chance to hand the 10-0 Colts their first loss.  

Mario Williams has already earned the nickname "Super Mario" among Houston Texans fans. If he continues the dominance he's shown in his first two night games against the Titans this Monday, a more apt moniker might the one Deion Sanders favored in his 14-year NFL career. Just call Williams "Prime Time." The top overall draft pick in 2006 has had the two best games of his...  

Joel Dreessen and rookie Anthony Hill filled in at tight end last week in Houston's first game since a season-ending knee injury to star Owen Daniels. When the Texans return from their bye with a game against Tennessee next Monday night, they hope to have versatile rookie James Casey back to contribute at the position after arthroscopic knee surgery.  

The Houston Texans find themselves in an unfamiliar position nine games into the season. They have a winning record (5-4) for the first time this late in the year and remain firmly in the playoff hunt. But as they enter their bye weekend, they're haunted by an inability to win big games like Sunday's 20-17 loss to Indianapolis and know they'll have to find a way to succeed in those...  

The NFL has fined Houston Texans safety Eugene Wilson $5,000 for hitting Colts tight end Dallas Clark during last weekend's game. Wilson was penalized for unnecessary roughness for the hit, which came in the second quarter and the Colts leading 13-0. Indianapolis won the game 20-17. The NFL said Friday that Wilson hit a defenseless receiver.  

Houston had a chance for its first single-season, four-game winning streak on Sunday against the Colts. Instead, the Texans committed a season-high 103 yards of penalties and three turnovers before Kris Brown missed a potential game-tying field goal as time expired in the 20-17 loss. "This week we were very sloppy," coach Gary Kubiak said.  

Houston's defense has a new attitude. Some might call it confidence, but the Texans prefer to call it something else. "You have to have the swagger when you step on the field that you're going to get it done, you're going to go make big plays to get off the field," linebacker DeMeco Ryans said.  

If Texans running back Steve Slaton's latest turnover means he's fumbled away his starting job in Houston, Ryan Moats is certainly ready to step in. In a game the Texans lost star tight end Owen Daniels to what's feared to be a severe knee injury, Slaton was sent to the bench after losing his fifth fumble of the season.  

The Houston Texans have won three straight and have their best record in franchise history at 5-3. The season is half over and they remain firmly in the playoff hunt. But the road gets tougher as they face undefeated AFC South rival Indianapolis, a team they've beaten only once. Ever. "Every game is going to get bigger and bigger every week," said Andre Johnson, in his seventh season in...  

When Gary Kubiak returned to his hometown in 2006 for his first head coaching job, the Houston Texans believed he was the one to turn the franchise around. Now that the Texans are virtually out of playoff contention in Kubiak's fourth season, he is left to answer questions about how much longer he'll be in charge of this underachieving team.  

Houston Texans running back Steve Slaton is done for the season after being placed on injured reserve Wednesday because of a nerve issue in his neck. Slaton, who ran for 1,282 yards last season, has had a fumbling problem this year and the Texans recently revealed that the injury on his right side was more serious than they initially believed.  

Texans tight end Owen Daniels was ruled out after spraining his right knee in the first quarter of Houston's game at the Buffalo Bills. Daniels was hurt during Houston's second possession Sunday. It's unclear how he was hurt, the player going down near the line of scrimmage before Matt Schaub underthrew a pass intended for Kevin Walter.  

In only his third year in Houston, Matt Schaub has no way of telling whether the Texans have completely shed their also-ran label. One thing the quarterback's sure of is that if it hasn't happened yet, then this is the team with the best opportunity to finally put the Texans squarely on the NFL map in their eighth season of existence.  

With six fumbles, Houston running back Steve Slaton has coughed up the ball more than any non-quarterback in the NFL. He's lost four of the six, leaving him tied for second in that category behind struggling Oakland quarterback JaMarcus Russell. The Texans don't know why Slaton is struggling with ball security this season after fumbling just three times as a rookie last year.  

Houston Texans rookie tight end Anthony Hill has a torn knee ligament and will miss the rest of the season. He is the second tight end the Texans have lost to a season-ending knee injury this season after Owen Daniels went down with a similar injury early in November. The injury to Hill's left knee leaves Houston with two healthy tight ends in Joel Dreessen and rookie James Casey heading into...  

Houston wide receiver Andre Johnson leads the NFL with 634 yards receiving, but tight end Owen Daniels isn't far behind. Daniels leads all tight ends and is tied for 10th in the league overall with 497 yards receiving. His team-leading five touchdown receptions are proof that the fourth-year player has become key to Houston's recent success.  

The Houston Texans broke out of their four-game losing streak in grand fashion this weekend. Matt Schaub had more than 300 yards passing by halftime and the defense scored as many points as it allowed in a 34-7 win over the Seahawks. Andre Johnson had his best game of the season and came just shy of a career-high with 193 yards receiving and a pair of touchdowns.  

Houston has struggled in the run game all season and starter Steve Slaton being placed on the injured reserve last week sure didn't help. The team ranks 29th in the league in yards rushing a game with 88.7. Now the Texans will try turning things around with rookie Arian Foster. The undrafted free agent spent most of the season on the practice squad and made his offensive debut last week.  

Andre Johnson told a teammate two weeks ago that his goal was to play the five best games of his career to help end Houston's season on a high note. He came just shy of a career high last week against Seattle and has 292 yards receiving and three touchdowns since his declaration. Now, the NFL's leading receiver gets to face the lowly Rams (1-12) as the Texans (6-7) look for their second...
