The Houston Texans could consider trading star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, two teams reportedly told Peter King of NBC Sports.

Houston is currently lacking top draft picks, notes King, after sending two first-round selections to the Miami Dolphins in a blockbuster trade for left tackle Laremy Tunsil.

Hopkins has been one of the league's most productive receivers since being drafted in the first round in 2013, racking up three 100-catch seasons, including 2019.

However, the 27-year-old's seven touchdowns and 1,165 yards were his lowest totals since 2016, the year prior to Deshaun Watson's arrival.

Despite his dip in performance, Hopkins remains the Texans' No. 1 wideout ahead of Kenny Stills and Will Fuller.
