Extremely underrated, you wouldn’t think he would be 11th all time in receiving yards considering how little he is spoken of but he was consistently great for nearly a decade in the NFL
CJ Riley it was Marvin Harrison, Randy Moss, T.O, Chad Johnson, Steve Smith, and Andre Johnson. Was a pleasure to grow up and have those guys to watch, especially with Andre being with my hometown team
@@GilbertSchmibwedein miserable expansion lmao. We’re one of the most valuable franchises in the nfl. And still the newest franchise with one of the best sports fan bases in the world. Foh
My all-time favorite WR. He just went out and quietly dominated for so many years. It's a shame he wasn't able to be part of an extended play-off run but real ones know how good he was.
@@Stephenwhite013 Calvin was better and more physically gifted but to be fair, he was drafted five years after Andre had already been in the league. Andre had exited his prime by the time Megatron was squarely in his. For me, Megatron is the most talented WR in league history. Moss was a freak but Calvin was an inch taller and outweighed him by around 30 pounds, while still being ridiculously fast. Owens, Andre, Julio, Fitzgerald and Green are all in the conversation for who the third most gifted WR is. You could make a case for any one of them.
Ginga no need to preach to the choir Andre is my guy when everybody was in love with Calvin I was an Andre Stan. Calvin ultimately was just a better player I can’t deny it the stats and my eyes prove it BUT Andre will always be my favorite of this era
@@CJ-oy5gp I'm not sure about that. Andre was great from the moment he stepped into the league. Still, he was only regarded as the best WR in the league between '03 and '07 for one year at the most. In '03, Randy Moss and Torry Holt had ridiculous years. In '04, T.O was amazing in Philly. Chad Johnson and Steve Smith were a level above everyone else in '05. In 2006 you could make a case for Andre being the very best but there were plenty of names still in the debate. He got hurt in '07 and we know what Moss did with Brady in New England. The best stretch of Andre's career was from '08 to '13. Three 100+ catch 1500 yard seasons, two more 1200+ yard seasons and the only year he didn't clear 1k yards, he missed 9 games. The only WRs in his league during that time were Larry and Megatron to me. Julio and A.J. Green were already dominating but the vets were a slight notch above them.
RogeMan which is the only good thing about Nuk being traded to Arizona. Everyone knows he’s great already, but hopefully he can do something special in the desert.
People other than Texans fans will not understand how great Andre Johnson was, 6'3,6'4, deceptively fast, strong hands, great route runner, feared no one, and just an overall BEAST. No bullshit, never complained, not a diva. Total team player, a straight up legend.
His humbleness is probably part of the reason he is so under appreciated. He doesn’t get recognized nearly as much as he should. He’s one of the best to ever do it
Most underrated WR to ever play the game! Miss watching him ball on Sundays...and he beat the hell out of Finnegan...he deserves a gold jacket for that alone lol
@@Nyjetsfan1289 he was right there with Calvin Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald. Always thought those three were the best wrs in the NFL during the late 2000s
When Johnson played no one ever underestimated him. You knew he was the guy you HAD to stop to beat the Texans, even then it was easier said than done. The man was one of the greatest WR's in the game. Now days he is forgotten about because he was a very humble and not a flashy guy. He was just a football player who happened to be great.
Andre johnson was my inspiration. I grew up in Houston watching him and he made me want to play wide receiver, he inspired me to play football. I’m a db now but still my favorite football player ever and in my opinion the best.
Kubiak loved those screen plays and I just wanted to throw the remote thru the tv everytime they tried one lol hearing Andre say that here makes me laugh looking back now that he probably just as frustrated as I was sometimes when they called a screen plays lol!!!
Lol, No he wasn't. Carmicheal from the Eagles was 6'8", McCaffrey from the Broncos ( Christians dad) was 6'5", and Randy Moss was 6'4". There were plenty of huge WRs before Andre Johnson.
@Old chunk of coal. WTF is the difference exactly. Ed McCaffrey has to be Christian's dad if Christian's Ed McCaffrey's son. Lol. Commenting nonsense on a 2 month old comment. Smdh.
It just won't be fair. The best QB the city has seen since Warren Moon with 2 of the best pass catchers in NFL history. The only negative is that Bill OBrien would probably have them doing some stupid shit or only run the ball or trade all of the Olinemen for another shitty corner back
Never understood why he didn't get the attention he deserved. I used to think it was because he was quiet n humble but than I look at Julio and Fitz and who have the same demeanor get all this fanfare and recognition and Johnson didn't get his due imo... top 10 all time wr.. pray he makes the hall💯

DiamondSamurai those players are already grown ass men when they get there 😂😂 you can always tell who’s gonna make it because they look like adults in high school
Andre Johnson deserves WAY more respect, his name is never even mentioned when so called experts bring up the best receivers from that era. In my opinion he's HOF without a doubt, and it's not just because I've met him or have his autograph. Growing up I was lucky enough to have an uncle who was/is a chauffeur and a limo driver so I've had the pleasure of meeting all sorts of athletes and entertainers in my life. Of all the athletes/entertainers I've met Andre Johnson was my favorite because he was the most genuine and humble, he doesn't have the arrogance of most entertainers. Most entertainers just have this aura that's off putting but when I met Andre we sat and talked for nearly 45 minutes about everything but football, I didn't even ask him for an autograph but before leaving he grabbed 2 footballs and signed them for me, one of his jerseys and took a pic with me and my cousin. Dude is the definition of class on and off the field, he doesn't even drive luxurious cars or walk around flaunting his wealth with ridiculously expensive jewelry and clothing. His career would've been way better had the Texans gotten him a better QB and coach earlier in his career, I'm not 100% sure about this but I'm almost certain he went through more starting QB's, head coaches and offensive coordinator's than any other top tier receiver from that era but he still found a way to put up respectable numbers with C list QB's. He's one of those guys that you genuinely feel bad for because his loyalty to an organization stunted his career, if he had Peyton Manning, Drew Brees or Tom Brady as a QB he'd have a few rings by now and would be regarded as one of the best receivers to EVER play the game.
damn watching these highlights makes me cry because i remember all those plays he made the good times with my brother watching that man i miss andre johnson
WRONG! AJ didn't swing with the helmet. and tit's CB took his helmet off first. AJ just gave him nice one-two and the fight was broken. that's like saying arod is trash because he's getting old and he's not tom brady.
This guy is such a great role model and inspiration for any youth looking up to him - I miss seeing this era of football. Those stats were insanely good for the time before everybody threw the ball 50 times a game. Andre is such a gentleman, one of my all-time favorite NFL receivers and one of the all-time best, bar none! He'd def. be in my top 10 of all time - I loved his physicality matched with his quiet and serious demeanor. You could tell this guy worked every day and stayed humble - HOF is next, bud!

Maybe my favorite non-49ers player. It was a pleasure to watch Andre play football. Not just because he was a dominant player, but he just seemed like a good human being overall that can inspire anyone in any profession to try their hardest to reach their goals. It's too bad he languished all of those years in Houston, where the Texans just kept tripping over themselves as a franchise.
I grew up watching Andre play. Been a Texans fan since the beginning and am truly thankful for all the contributions that 80 made to our team when we were both growing up.
Andre Johnson is probably the humblest elite Wide Receiver there ever was. Barely ever any shit talking or ego. He let his game do the talking. Unless you are Finnegan of course.
Andre if you ever see this, I just want you to know that at the end of the video you say how you want people to look at your career as someone who gave his all every day, well sir I look at it that way. you are one of the greatest wide receivers to every play in the NFL. Not only that but you were the heart and soul of the Houston Texans. I truly wish I was more into football when I was younger so I could have watched you play more while you were still in the league. God bless you and your family. Thanks for giving your all every day for the people of Houston for over a decade of your life. Please know that most if not all Texans fans love you and will always respect you as one of the best players to ever play in Houston.
It’s a shame he never left the Texans and pursued a championship. Every team would have loved to have him. As a Hurricane fan I’ve been waiting nearly 20 years for another like him at the U.
True story my dad sold a car here in Miami to his mom and my parents became great friends with his mom and I went to his daughters birthday and we were the only white family lmao
Man this made me kind of emotional not gonna lie, grew up watching this man play since I was a little kid now I’m a grown ass man and looking back at these highlights makes me feel I’m back in the good ole days
I was a reporter in Miami and covered high school football. I will always remember the first time I saw Andre catch a pass and run. The first thing was that nobody on the defense really tried to tackle him. The just dove at his ankle. The second was I had never seen an athlete run with the combo of speed and size he had. It was special to see and I am always grateful I was up close to witness it
I look at all these amazing wide receiver and most of them never had a great qb. Jerry Rice was was blessed to have two amazing qb so the question of the day is. Is Jerry rice the best wide receiver of all time or was he just blessed by the football gods
@@66ose yes I agree he is the GOAT because he has all the wide receiver records and he done it in the era when the defense had the advantage unlike today when the offense has the advantage
Jerry is easily the best WR regardless. He had the talent, and was lucky to play with Montana and Young. If Megatron, Moss, or AJ had that level of talent in the pocket most of their career, sure they would've performed better, but I don't think they would've overtaken Rice.

Oh I almost forgot about Andre Johnson he sure is a beast.
That’s my WR1. Should’ve never played for another team. Hated it when they let him go
Flex Luger big time players like that take up cap room
@@dareonallen9574 "cough" Philip rivers lol
Thanks to Billy'O that wanted him to get less touches because of D'Hop
Imagine Andre In his prime with d hop and deshaun
The first 6000 yard QB season is what that would have been lol
My dawg. Went to school with his sister and i met him a few times. Real down to earth dude. Bless up
Just throw it up, Andre Johnson is somewhere out there 💯 From a Broncos fan. RESPECT ✊
True story my dad sold a car here in Miami to his mom and my parents became great friends with his mom and I went to his daughters birthday and we were the only white family lmao
Im sure you guys had a great time lol usually black gathering of that nature are accepting and cool
Francisco Davis yea everybody there was nice it was all around fun and great moist cake too
Imagine him, Watson and Hopkins all in their prime together 😮
The texans might not have gotten railed by the chiefs LOL
@@camerondenis4007 😆😆😆 probably not
Facts with prime Arian Foster 🔥
Well-deserved
When I saw this video I thought the strongest wide receiver was Calvin Johnson with no question
But after watching this I can’t disagree
Calvin was stronger but Andre was still hella strong; DK Metcalf is even stronger though.
@@xfranchize metcalf is about to be the next calvin
Man this made me kind of emotional not gonna lie, grew up watching this man play since I was a little kid now I’m a grown ass man and looking back at these highlights makes me feel I’m back in the good ole days
Most underrated receiver, imagine if he had watson as his QB
Watson sucks. Matt Schaub was good before he got injured. Shut the fuck up, you know nothing about the Texans.
@@noelduran8880 …
Him or anquan boldin he’s also a really strong receiver
IICHAUNCEYII Bolden was the man.
boldin was a rb at wr like steve smith I love those guys; Larry and Andre were the jump ball physical dudes.
so youre telling me this is what ive been missing out damn wish my mom had me earlier
Masify how old r ya
Great video.Well deserved. Andre Johnson was a monster on Sunday’s! Miss watching him. He doesn’t get enough credit at all.
This guy was my childhood hero
13:19 I feel like he will be remembered most from him punching Cortland Finnegan and getting ejected
2:52 damn that Moss glide
He did it the right way💪🏾💪🏾
I was a reporter in Miami and covered high school football. I will always remember the first time I saw Andre catch a pass and run. The first thing was that nobody on the defense really tried to tackle him. The just dove at his ankle. The second was I had never seen an athlete run with the combo of speed and size he had. It was special to see and I am always grateful I was up close to witness it
I remember when he served courtland the 8 piece special 😂😂😂😂
With no biscuit 😂
His best QB was Schaub I can’t believe my team didn’t a QB for him.
Basically smh
It’s so sad how every highlight the Texans are down by at least 7
I didnt think anyone else noticed lmao
Yep it was tough being a Texan fan at the time. It still is but it’s not as rough as before lol
Hopefully not this year 🙌🙌🙌
@@themanthemythjordan2462 lmao
@@BertMustin_ don't do him like that 😂
And finnegan ass whoopin' is legendary to! Much love andre for all those good years man! H-Town loves you bro.
Should be in the pro football hall of fame Andre Johnson was a beast at the u 🙌 and for the Houston Texans
I look at all these amazing wide receiver and most of them never had a great qb. Jerry Rice was was blessed to have two amazing qb so the question of the day is. Is Jerry rice the best wide receiver of all time or was he just blessed by the football gods
Jerry rice is easily the goat but there are so many receivers that are way more talented than him.
@@66ose yes I agree he is the GOAT because he has all the wide receiver records and he done it in the era when the defense had the advantage unlike today when the offense has the advantage
Jerry is easily the best WR regardless. He had the talent, and was lucky to play with Montana and Young. If Megatron, Moss, or AJ had that level of talent in the pocket most of their career, sure they would've performed better, but I don't think they would've overtaken Rice.
Skyron Flight Rice is known more for his rac tbh
Goat💯💯💯💯💯
