Hall of Fame receiver Michael Irvin says he talked to DeAndre Hopkins on Tuesday about being traded away from Houston, and he had quite a story to tell.
Irvin joined Mike Greenberg and Marcus Spears on ESPN’s “Get Up” on Wednesday morning to discuss that phone call with Hopkins, who was traded from the Texans to the Arizona Cardinals for running back David Johnson and some draft picks.

“(Hopkins) told me, Michael, it was a bit of a power struggle there because Coach O’Brien thought he had too much influence over the locker room,” Irvin said.
