That’s right.

The sure handed wideout has decided to hold out on the Texans until he is taken care of:

Houston (CBS HOUSTON) –

UPDATE:The Texans have released a statement from general manager Rick Smith.

“We are disappointed DeAndre has elected not to report to training camp with the rest of his teammates. He has expressed his position regarding his contract status, and we have been clear with both he and his representatives of ours. Our focus is on the 2016 season and all of our collective efforts and attention with be centered on that endeavor.”

The Houston Texans number one wide receiver left training camp on Saturday a day before full-squad squad practice looking for a new deal.

Per me and@AdamSchefter, unhappy with his contract, Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins has left camp. Holdout underway. Texans aren’t negotiating.

Hopkins in entering his fourth season of his rookie contract. Last week he said that he wanted to be paid “what he’s worth” but didn’t specify. Now he believes he is worth more than he is currently making.

The Texans traditionally resign players before their rookie deals expire like they did with J.J. Watt in 2014 (two years before his deal was up) and Whitney Mercilus in 2015. The Texans can pick up a 5th year option for just over $7 million for the 2017 season if Hopkins comes back and they don’t extend him.

Hopkins is likely looking for a new contract that will get him around $14 million a year and $35-$40 million guaranteed. He possibly could be the highest paid wide receiver in the league if he gets a new deal.

If the Texans are smart they will re-up Hopkins before Antonio Brown hits the market again. Looks like we won’t see DeAndre until this thing is settled.

For those counting, Hopkins put up 111 catches for 1,521 yards and 11 TD last year.

UPDATE:

After a one-day holdout, DeAndre Hopkins is returning to Texans, per source.

After Watkins went out of the game with a sprained ankle, Hopkins went H.A.M. as they say. He posted a Chick Fil’ A Bowl record of 190 yards receiving and 2 touchdowns. All of this against the mighty LSU Tigers aka “DB-U.”

On the LSU side, Bernie Logan has played well. He blocked a kick. Sam Montgomery has been disruptive. But Barkevious Mingo looked like the player that once was thought of as the #1 pick in many mock drafts. I’ve said it before, in another year he could easily be he #1 overall pick… the door still isn’t closed on that happening by the way.

Mingo, Hopkins… *whew* this was an instant classic folks. Make sure you find a replay of the 2013 Chick Fil A Bowl if you didn’t get to see it!

(Just in case you are wondering I’m liking Hopkins in the pick 30-40 range.)
