Andre Johnson Returns And Speaks To Media

If 'DreGate isn't over, there's at least a detente. Andre Johnson reported to OTAs this morning and spoke to the media afterward. Can't believe I'm typing this, but I think 'Dre actually came across as even more likable. Video after the jump...

He needs to fire his Uncle

I love Andre Johnson. I believe he is a class act and the best WR in the NFL. The fact remains that he hired his Uncle and his Uncle keeps putting him in a bad light. Last year was the ESPN article where his Uncle talked about forcing a trade. This year it is the holdout and not being happy with the contract. I hope that AJ gets paid more to be honest but I don’t like the fact that the man allows his Uncle to be the scapegoat for what he is allowing to happen…. The Texans need to reward him and AJ needs to let his Uncle go after the negotiations.

Andre just looks even awesomer compared to his uncle though.

I like him being involved for this reason.

Totally agree with this

It seems like it’s the uncle who is behind these douchey moves.

As amazing as Andre is, because he doesn’t say anything bad sometimes I can’t fully watch his videos.

I just noticed that Cushing is off the front page....

I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?

speaking of, heres a good pic of him and the 'mini holliday' (via the official site)

Some people say "If you can't beat them, join them". I say "If you can't beat them, beat them", because they will be expecting you to join them, so you will have the element of surprise.

If your return man is Maurice Jones-Drew, we'll take that deal

I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but you appear to be unarmed.
