Texans react on social media to Andre Johnson's retirement

Wide receiver Andre Johnson returned Wednesday to the Houston Texans, with whom he was a seven-time Pro Bowl selection, to officially retire. Johnson played with the Texans in 2003-14, the Indianapolis Colts in 2015 and the Tennessee Titans last season.

After playing 12 seasons in Houston and being the franchise's leading receiver with 13,597 yards, it's safe to say that Johnson left more than a legacy with his team in Houston.

As expected, he received an outpouring of reaction on social media from some of his Texans teammates, including J.J. Watt and DeAndre Hopkins.

Johnson, 35, finished his career with 1,062 catches for 14,185 yards and 70 touchdowns. He has the 11th-most receptions and receiving yards in NFL history.
