Theo Johnson Downgraded to Out for Week 7 Matchup Against Texans

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson has been officially downgraded to out for Sunday's Week 7 contest against the Houston Texans due to a neck injury. Johnson suffered the injury in Week 5 and missed last week's game against New Orleans. His continued absence removes a key target for quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who is scheduled to make his first career start for New York's depleted offense.
