Kubiak: WR Johnson's injury is "mild"

HOUSTON

Kubiak says rookie punter Brett Hartmann is out for the season after tearing his left anterior cruciate ligament late in Sunday's 17-10 win over Atlanta. Kubiak says the Texans will sign a punter this week, possibly Matt Turk, who was cut by Jacksonville in October. Turk played for Houston from 2007-10.

Johnson pulled up in the third quarter of Sunday's game as he was chasing down a deep pass from rookie T.J. Yates, who was making his first NFL start. The five-time Pro Bowl receiver was playing his second game after missing the previous six with a right hamstring injury that required minor surgery.
