Texans' DeAndre Hopkins on Brian Gaine firing: 'That's above my pay grade'

Texans receiver DeAndre Hopkins was as surprised as everyone else Friday when he found out general manager Brian Gaine had been fired.

"That's above my pay grade," he said Saturday before signing autographs at TriStar's Show at Reliant Arena. "That's the organization's decision. I just try to do my job, and that's to execute the play that's called."

Hopkins has been rehabbing a foot injury during the offseason program. Asked if he'll be ready for training camp, he said, "I plan to be. I'm doing good. I'm trying to get better and help my team win more games and be better than last year.
