Wide receiver Andre Johnson is a made-to-order rookie in the NFL, a league in which veterans prefer first-year players to be seen but not heard.
Johnson, the Texans' first-round draft pick, left the University of Miami a year early, but he has a master's degree in this particular area.
Just ask his position coach at Miami, who sometimes told Johnson to "just go home," after one of his star pupil's office visits turned into another silent session.
Just ask Indianapolis Colts receiver Reggie Wayne, who was picked to chaperon Johnson on his recruiting visit to Miami.
