    Seriously though, I hope this doesn't mean bad news with AJ's injury

    Good move. He is old but still had a good year last year. Solid #3 receiver. David Anderson sucks.

    i dont hate the idea but i wonder how injured Bryant Johnson is because he still seems a better option than Mason. If he can't go then against the ravens then it makes more sense, but still, there isnt much he can pick up in a week.

    All I can think is that you play Mason and push JJ to the slot, which is where he belongs. He isn't an everydown #2 without AJ in there. He was just bad.

    NICE!!!!

    The dude hasn't depended on his speed in 5 years, so he knows how to get open, run crisp routes, and move the chains despite his age. Love it.

    Nice move by the Texans. He's going to play a Keenan McCardell like role.

    1,000+ receiving yards in 8 of the last 10 season and average of 6 TDs a year in that span. 800 yards and 7 TDs just last year. Sure he's old and has to learn a new system on the fly, but he's a nice veteran pickup that won't cause problems in the locker room. And he can catch. Good move.

    This is like spy vs. spy

    We have Mason, they have Leach.

    It's a battle of intel swapping.

    No. It just means that Jacoby Jones is never going to play WR again.
    YAY!

    Tennessee Oilers, but oh well. I believe he is the last Oiler in the NFL.
