    He was never traded for David Johnson. He was always here. Great day to be a Texan fan.

    Agree.
    It will probably have to be on Caserios terms though - iow, a team friendly deal.

    It would have to be a trade though right?

    He had 64 catches and 700 yds in half a season last year which is still pretty good (elite). It would energize the fanbase for sure. Can we restructure that contract?

    IF we were interested, the best thing to do would be waiting for him to be released. Maybe he wants to come home to finish his career. Probably has about 3 seasons left.

    makes a lot of sense actually

    still elite player when healthy (declining play is just a lie honestly)

    Texans have no receivers, no one waiting to be the next guy, no one with any kind of expectation on the whole roster.

    Dude is quarterback proof, and gives the offense 1 guy that can be targeted at least.

    One of the most beloved players in the history of the franchise, could argue as high as 3rd, ever

    Plenty of room to make a deal.
    ___

    But I think he would obviously like to be in a far more competitive situation. Not sure why he would be interested in returning, honestly

    Beloved by who?

    He forced his way out. Good riddance.

    Love how you speak in black or white and on behalf of everyone.

    JJ Watt was and still is a huge fan of him and recently as couple of weeks ago put Hops’ name forward for the Texans.

    D-Hop is a major troublemaker. Cancerous presence in the locker room. DO NOT WANT.

    We need a fresh start on this team to develop a winning culture.

    Which means you know about as much about the locker room as someone in the nose bleeds

    IIRC Nuk didn't force his way out... he asked for a pay raise (that he felt he earned).... which player who is making All-Pro teams wouldn't ask for a pay increase?

    IIRC he also was not in love with BOob's practice methods (and none of the other players were as well)

    I thought that was Easterbunny trying to protect the precious FQB (too late!)

    I’m guessing it was BOB that went to Easterby but I remember BOB being rumored to be the one that had an issue with his BM(s)

    You're 100%, correct! We don't need somebody who was ever charged with, uh. What was he charged with again?

    Or how's about the time he got into it with his teammates? Uh, donyou remember when he got into it with his teammates?

    But for sure we don't need somebody who asked for a trade out of Houston. Uh, do you recall when he ask for a trade out of Houston?

    Come to think of it, I don't recall anything bad about D-Hop

    He has some issues with rage and drugs, as well as a lack of respect for leadership. There is some other stuff that I won't even go into. We want nothing to do with him.

    No, please elaborate and send us some links in addition to the Ostarine.

    Don't bother mentioning his not for profit work either, as that is something you would gladly glance over.
