Longtime Houston Texan and current Tennessee Titans wide receiver Andre Johnson will retire on Monday, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Johnson ends his career with 1,062 receptions, 14,185 yards and 70 touchdowns.

The 36-year-old participated in all eight games for the Titans so far this year, but with just 85 yards and two touchdowns, Johnson had a very minor role in Tennessee’s offense, foreign to the likely future Hall of Famer.

Johnson becomes the second former Texans offensive weapon in the last week to retire. Running back Arian Foster retired earlier this week. Foster finished his career with 6,527 yards and 54 touchdowns.
