There are serious consequences awaiting Texans after Hopkins trade

Bill O’Brien might singlehandedly destroy everything he worked so little for with an absurd trade that made waves through Twitter in an isolated Monday afternoon. There were rumblings of the Houston Texans interested in improving their talent at running back with Carlos Hyde and Lamar Miller’s contracts expiring.

Houston had the opportunity to sign a running back in free agency, acquire one via trade, or resort to the draft to select a ball carrier on a team-friendly rookie deal. However, O’Brien decided to strike a deal with the Arizona Cardinals to receive David Johnson, a former Pro Bowl and first-team All-Pro in 2016.
