The agreed trade the Arizona Cardinals made with the Houston Texans to acquire receiver DeAndre Hopkins is one step closer to being completely official. Both the Cardinals and the Texans have announced the deal but it was pending both Hopkins and running back David Johnson, who was sent to the Texans as part of the deal, pass physical exams.
According to NFL Network’s James Palmer, Hopkins has passed his physical.
Former #texans and soon to be #cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins just passed his physical. So you know what that means.

Whether Johnson has passed his or not has not yet been announced.
When that happens, the trade will be official and processed in the league office.
Head coach Kliff Kingsbury said in a video press conference said last week he was not concerned and was confident that the deal would be official before the draft next week.
