New Arizona Cardinals receiver DeAndre Hopkins missed two days of practice due to a sore hamstring, and it prompted some questions from his old stomping grounds.

Houston Chronicle reporter John McClain shared an article asking if Hopkins was holding out.

The superstar receiver denied McClain's speculation.

The Houston Texans traded Hopkins in March due to the belief that it would be difficult to re-sign the wideout, who asked for a new deal with three years remaining on his agreement. Hopkins owns the fifth-richest contract for a receiver on a per annual basis, but the three-time All-Pro is considered underpaid.
