Andre Johnson: "I'm a Colt"

INDIANAPOLIS - Seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Andre Johnson has signed with the Indianapolis Colts on Wednesday, the team announced.

"It's official, I'm a Colt," Johnson said on Instagram, posting a picture of himself and Colts head coach Chuck Pagano.

Houston released Johnson on Monday after allowing him to seek a trade a week ago; now he will play against the Texans twice a year in the uniform of the perennial AFC South winners.

The deal is worth a reported $21 million over three years, according to multiple sources including Pro Football Talk.

Johnson, the No. 3 overall pick from Miami in 2003, is the Texans' all-time leading receiver, leaving the club after twelve seasons with 1,012 receptions for 13,597 yards, adding 164 touchdowns in 169 games.

He finished last season with Houston on 85 catches for 936 yards and three scoring grabs.
