Former Titans RB Chris Johnson reacts to DeAndre Hopkins trade

March 19, 2020 by Titans Wire Leave a Comment

There have been a number of puzzling moves made this offseason — but among the most startling of those was made by the Houston Texans on Tuesday.

We’re still struggling to understand the team’s decision to trade star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and a 2020 fourth-round pick to the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for… running back David Johnson, a 2020 second-round pick and a 2021 fourth-round pick.

You know the gif of the puppy cocking his head surrounded by a bunch of question marks?

Yeah, you can insert that here.

Former Titans running back Chris Johnson, who went head-to-head with the division rival Texans several times in his career, shared a similar sentiment.

He took to Twitter on Wednesday, saying that there’s “no way” the Texans should have traded Hopkins.

It’s no way houston should have traded D-hop 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

The rumor mill is rolling with claims that there was bad blood between Hopkins and head coach Bill O’Brien, as well as a potential contract dispute.

It’s still unclear as to what exactly drove Houston to make this move — and it may always be that way — but it’s hard to argue the Texans didn’t just deal themselves a self-inflicted blow that could be costly in the future.
