The Houston Texans' receivers are getting a few tips from one of the NFL's all-time greats early on in this year's training camp.

Randy Moss, a six-time Pro Bowler and the third-leading receiver in league history, is in attendance to work with the Texans' young position group at Tuesday's training-camp practice.

Reports from beat writers on hand indicate Moss is spending plenty of time with DeAndre Hopkins, and the pairing appears to be quite fitting. Hopkins has quickly emerged as an elite talent at an already-stacked position, and his ability to win jump balls over the top of defenders is also similar to Moss.

Having a legendary presence in attendance for the day's individual and team work can also prove beneficial to the rest of Houston's young group of receivers.

Jaelen Strong, a third-round pick in last year's draft, for example, enters his second season looking to make good on his clear potential. The Texans were able to add another pair of dynamic talents through the draft this year, with the selections of Will Fuller and Braxton Miller in the first and third rounds, respectively.
