Johnson aggravated his ankle injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Bills, according to CBS Houston, but he was able to re-enter the contest and finished with six catches on seven targets for 71 yards, though he lost a fumble for the first time in 82 games.
Johnson continues to see a decent number of targets, but he watched fellow starting wideout DeAndre Hopkins score a touchdown for the third time in four games, while Johnson is still looking for his first score of the season. The ankle issue is clearly something that is going to linger, but for the time being it appears that he'll battle through it.

Johnson (ankle) is active Sunday against the Bills, John McClain of the Houston Chronicle reports.
With a team-high 27 targets through three games on the ledger, Johnson is a good bet to produce against a Bills defense that has allowed 11.6 YPC to opposing wideouts this season.

Johnson (ankle, probable) practiced fully again Friday, the Texans' official site reports.
We'll verify Johnson's status Sunday, but the veteran wideout -- who leads the Texans with 16 catches and 27 targets in three games to date -- looks good to go for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Johnson (ankle) practiced fully Thursday, the Texans' official site reports.
Johnson is thus on track for a probable injury designation leading up to Sunday's game against the Bills.

Johnson (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday, the Texans' official site reports.
We'll circle back on Johnson's status Thursday, but it's quite plausible that the veteran wideout's limitations on Wednesday were maintenance-related.

Johnson (ankle) caught four passes on a team-high 11 targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 30-17 loss to the Giants.
Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was not good Sunday, which impacted Johnson's output, but the wide receiver has not made a big impact on fantasy lineups even in the Texans' two wins to open the season. He leads all Houston receivers with 27 targets, but has only 16 catches for 191 yards and zero touchdowns.

Johnson (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Johnson continues to be listed on the injury report with an ankle issue, but he's been able to play through it without any issues. He's still looking for his first touchdown this season, but he'll break through at some point given his decent number of targets.

Johnson (ankle) grabbed six passes on seven targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 30-14 win at Oakland.
While Johnson's numbers are nothing special, keep in mind that Ryan Fitzpatrick completed just 14-of-19 passes for 139 yards. The veteran wide receiver will probably post some big games along the way, but Houston's formula has been simple through the first two weeks; pound the ball with Arian Foster (28 carries for 138 yards Sunday) and play good defense.

Johnson (ankle) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
Fee free to roll with Johnson as you normally would Sunday against the Raiders, on the heels of a Week 1 effort in which the veteran wideout caught six passes for 93 yards.

Johnson (ankle) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
Johnson is likely to pop up on the Texans' practice participation/injury reports in the coming weeks, as the Texans manage his practice reps some, but there's no danger that he'll miss Week 2's contest.
