Johnson With 3rd Afc South Team After Signing With Titans

(AP) — Andre Johnson has been working out every day since March, making sure he would be ready when an NFL team called for the services of the man with the most catches and yards of anyone still playing. The 13-year veteran jumped on a plane Friday night and flew to Tennessee, making the Titans his third stop in three years in the four-team AFC South. Tennessee is the team Johnson spent the first 12 seasons of his career shredding with reception after reception, touchdown after touchdown for the Houston Texans. The receiver said he has no issues with the Colts, who cycled through quarterbacks because of injuries to Andrew Luck. Johnson said he wasn't surprised with how the NFL trends toward younger players despite his career numbers of 1,053 catches for 14,100 yards. Last year, Harry Douglas and Kendall Wright led the receivers with 36 catches apiece, while Dorial Green-Beckham led the group with 549 yards receiving. Tennessee needs better options for quarterback Marcus Mariota after going 3-13 last season, and the Titans are giving Johnson a chance to compete for a starting job.
