"For the second consecutive day, Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson did not practice.
Coach Gary Kubiak said Johnson, who missed the last four games because of a hamstring injury, continues to be day-to-day and will be a game-time decision Sunday against Cleveland at Reliant Stadium.
Kubiak said Johnson would work Friday.
"I'm not scared to play Andre if he doesn't practice a whole lot," Kubiak said. "He knows what's going on from that standpoint. This is strictly about his health and how he's feeling.
"Like I said, we got to a point Monday where we pushed really, really hard. Some soreness came about, so we took him off (Wednesday), the thought was to have him back out here (Thursday), made a decision before practice, no.
"We'll resume the process (Friday) and see where we're at.""
