Andre Johnson triggers $3.3M escalator
Andre Johnson - WR - Houston Texans
Jan. 30, 2013 - 11:45 PM ET

Andre Johnson triggered an escalator in his contract, raising his 2013 salary from $6.2 million to $9.5 million.

Johnson finished the 2012 season with 112 grabs for 1,598 yards but just four touchdowns. His catch total was good for fourth-best in the NFL, while his yards total was second only behind Calvin Johnson. At 31 years old, Johnson is still going strong, but the Texans could definitely stand to get him some help at receiver this offseason. He has four years left on his current deal.
