DeAndre Hopkins: 'Andre Johnson has helped me learn in rookie season'

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins says that he has learnt a lot from teammate Andre Johnson in his first year in the NFL.

DeAndre Hopkins has praised his Houston Texans teammate Andre Johnson for helping him learn in his rookie season.

The rookie wide receiver has recorded 767 receiving yards and scored two touchdowns in his first year in the NFL, with one game still to play.

The 21-year-old told the team's official website: "I couldn't even put it into really a couple of sentences how much I've learned from this guy.

"He's talked to me a lot on and off the field. Basically, he teaches by example. He's not going to sit there and give you a paragraph on what you should do. He's a great leader.

"Being professional you come to your job every day, getting better no matter the circumstances, no matter what the record is. You have to keep the same mindset and just keep the pro mentality."

The Texans face the Tennessee Titans in their final game of the regular season tomorrow.
