"The availability of Andre Johnson, Mario Williams and Jacoby Jones will be "game-time" decisions Sunday, according to Texans coach Gary Kubiak.

But Johnson, recovering from a twice-sprained ankle, and Williams, who pulled a groin muscle in practice Thursday, said there's no decision as far as they're concerned. The two Pro Bowlers intend to play against the New York Giants.

"I'll be out there," Johnson said. "I felt great running around today."

Williams, calling his injury "a little boo-boo," said, "If I can walk, there's no way I'm going to miss the game. I've got to play with it. I'm going to ride until the wheels fall off. I'll give it everything I've got."

Johnson was uncomfortable with an ankle brace he was fitted with for Thursday's practice but switched to a shorter, less restrictive one Friday that, he said, "allowed me to do the things I need to do."

Quarterback Matt Schaub called Johnson's optimism "awesome" and said he was "very excited" to be getting his favorite target back. In his three starts, Johnson had 19 catches for 266 yards and the spectacular touchdown reception that allowed the Texans to force overtime in their victory over Washington. "
