HOUSTON -- When the Texans drafted DeAndre Hopkins in 2013, he did what many receivers drafted by the Texans in the prior decade did.
He set to work studying Andre Johnson and mimicking his routine. The weekly schedule. The post-game recovery. Johnson had been one of the league's top receivers for 10 years. That longevity is one for which every player strives.
