It's only been a few days, but new Indianapolis Colts WR Andre Johnson is quickly getting used to the idea of playing with a franchise quarterback.

According to the Indianapolis Star, Johnson indicated Wednesday he already can tell he's going to enjoy catching passes from Andrew Luck.

"He throws a great ball," Johnson said. "He's probably the best quarterback I've ever played with."

After 12 years in Houston, Johnson is enjoying the chance to play for a Super Bowl contender.

"Like a breath of fresh air," Johnson said. "The past two years have been pretty frustrating."

Luck, for his part, expressed his admiration for Johnson's career longevity.

"I was in middle school when he got drafted by the Texans," Luck said, according to the Star. "Now I get to play with him, so it's cool. It really is."
