April 3 (UPI) -- In his first public comments since trading away star receiver DeAndre Hopkins, Houston Texans head coach and general manager Bill O'Brien explained the team's decision-making process when speaking to season-ticket holders Friday.
The Texans traded Hopkins, a four-time All-Pro choice, and a 2020 fourth-round draft pick to the Cardinals in exchange for running back David Johnson, a 2020 second-round selection and a 2021 fourth-rounder last month.
