The Arizona Cardinals have expressed interest in trading down from the eighth pick, according to reports.

Arizona could use the pick to add draft capital. They lack a second-round pick after acquiring DeAndre Hopkins from the Houston Texans earlier this month.

DeAndre Hopkins said he didn't have a relationship with Bill O'Brien prior to his trade from the Houston Texans to the Arizona Cardinals.

“There was no relationship,” Hopkins said. “Make sure you put that in there. There’s not a lot to speak about.”

The Texans framed the trade as part of an economic reality. Hopkins signed a five-year extension in 2017 that guaranteed him $49 million, but that deal became outdated. Hopkins wanted another extension with an average of $22 million.

DeAndre Hopkins passed his physical with the Arizona Cardinals on Monday afternoon.

There were no details about who gave Hopkins the physical, or where it was administered.

The trade between the Cardinals and Houston Texans had to be finalized prior to this month's NFL Draft because draft pick compensation was involved.

Kliff Kingsbury believes the blockbuster trade that sent David Johnson to the Houston Texans for DeAndre Hopkins will be finalized by this month's NFL Draft.

The draft begins on April 23.

"There's not concern," the Arizona Cardinals coach said. "But those aren't official, as far as I know, at this point, but we'll get it done. Obviously the medical field and personnel have much bigger fish to fry at this point. And so, it's been slower than it would be, but I have no doubt it's going to be done before the draft."

The Cardinals and Texans agreed to the trade on March 16, but restrictions related to the coronavirus have kept the deal from being completed.
