Why is it breaking news that Andre Johnson showed up for the first day of Texans training camp? Isn't he still part of the team? Isn't this HIS JOB unless the Texans cut him loose?
 
I don't grasp why this is breaking news. 4951

He has shared with the world that he would like to be traded out... He has showed displeasure for the Texans. He wants a ring..and doesn't believe it can happen with the Texans.. and he isn't a young buck anymore by nfl standards. 4951

When it is a big deal for a member to show up at training camp, @donnatella, it is for a couple of reasons.  Money. They only show up when they get their contracts worked out.Injuries.  If they are hurt and can't show up, big deal, esp to those of us who play fantasy footballEmoticonBehavior.  Lately you have to wonder who will not be there because their worthless arses are in jail.
 
@Fallon:
Guess he didnt want to pay the up to $30k per day fine for missing days at camp

Andre is still a beast and one of the few players our sucky team has that's worthwhile. Don't get me wrong I love my team but aside from Johnson, Watt, and now Clowny we don't have the players for a superbowl contention. I'm waiting to see how Fitzpatrick pans out as QB, honestly last season even though we lost every game I enjoyed seeing Case Kenum throw a 50 yard pass to Johnson at least once a game. Win or Lose if we have at least one big play like that I'm happy. 4951

I agree,, I don't understand the news around here,,, Breaking news,,, a car wreck in Dallas,,, BREAKING NEWS,,, _____ this morning I thought the news casters were going to cry with happiness about Andre Johnson showing up. He showed up because its his job. If don't show up to work,, will get paid?Listen folks,, he is in a contract, that is why the Texans wont trade,,, signed and sealed, for now.. The $1 million he lost was because he did not attend ALL the required off season training,, he knew that, if he would have shown up as in his contract, then he would have gotten paid.Of course he wants to be traded,, so would I. A few years ago Texans were a top rated team,, but they wanted to "keep" the great quarterback,,, Carr then Schaub,, they didn't want to go out and spread the wealth for other key players, so the team died. if I was Johnson, I would want to be traded to a key team, with a chance for a superbowl. The Texans will trade him after this season. 4951
