Texans' Duke Johnson (ankle) out for Week 3

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson will not play Sunday in the team's Week 3 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

What It Means:

Johnson, like last week, was limited in practice every day of the week, leading many to believe he could suit up for the team come Sunday. But for the second consecutive week, he's been ruled out with an ankle sprain, and it's unclear when he'll be ready to go. David Johnson will handle the vast majority of the backfield touches once again.

Pittsburgh has been the NFL's rush defense according to adjusted net expected points, allowing negative 0.17 per attempt.
