Nerdy Football Analysis: Even with a 79 consecutive games played streak, the Texans are wise to sit out their star receiver if he is indeed hobbled. Hopkins made the most out his season despite a revolving door at QB to finish with a 96-1378-13 line. He’ll be a top 5 pick at his position in drafts next summer.
