Potential partners in DeAndre Hopkins trade want Cardinals to pay some of his salary

The Arizona Cardinals have been shopping wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins this offseason. He has a cap hit of more than $30 million and is due more than $19 million in salary this coming season.

Among the obstacles to a potential deal, his salary seems to be a sticking point.

According to ESPN’s Dan Graziano, teams would like the Cardinals to take on some of the money of Hopkins’ salary.

I couldn’t find a team at the meetings that sounded eager to bring him on without the Cardinals eating some of the money.
