Bill O'Brien Compared DeAndre Hopkins To Aaron Hernandez

Mar 18, 2020 12:04 PM

Bill O'Brien allegedly compared DeAndre Hopkins to Aaron Hernandez during a heated meeting.

O'Brien thought Hopkins had too much influence over the Houston Texans' locker room.

"(O'Brien) started the meeting with telling DeAndre Hopkins this. ... He said: 'Hey, the last time I had to have a meeting like this, it was with Aaron Hernandez," said Michael Irvin.

Hopkins was confused and angered by the comparison and that the meeting "deteriorated" from there.

"Hopkins has a few kids from different women - (O'Brien) told DeAndre he doesn't like that he has his 'baby mamas' around sometimes, and from that, I think the relationship just went bad," Irvin added.

The Texans traded Hopkins to the Arizona Cardinals this week in what has been described as one of the most lopsided in NFL history.

Cardinals Showing Draft Interest In WRs Jeudy, Lamb, Ruggs

Mar 3, 2020 10:14 AM

The Arizona Cardinals are looking to add a wide receiver in this year's NFL Draft.

"We can certainly use an outside receiver, especially one that can take the top off or could be physical in coverage and go get the ball in the air," Steve Keim said during the combine.

Arizona has the eighth overall pick and has interest in Oklahoma's CeeDee Lamb, and Alabama's Jerry Jeudy and Henry Ruggs III.

"I'm an offensive coach who was a quarterback, I'm always looking for a fast, outside guy," Kliff Kingsbury said. "We're going to do what's best for our organization, but those three guys are definitely in play."

"Love all three of those guys," Kingsbury added.
