DeAndre Hopkins doesn't practice Tuesday
O'Brien: "We've got him on a little bit of a pitch count"
By: Jake Gordon | Aug 15 2017, 11:00 pm

DeAndre Hopkins did not practice again on Tuesday. He has not practiced since last Monday, though he did play in the Texans' preseason opener on Wednesday. On Monday, Bill O'Brien said Hopkins is "doing fine." "We've got him on a little bit of a pitch count, so to speak," O'Brien said. (ESPN.com)

FFToday's Take: Typically, teams use a "pitch count" to protect a player coming back from an injury or trying to prevent an injury from getting worse. That being said, HC Bill O'Brien doesn't appear to be too concerned with the situation so DeAndre Hopkins remains a top 20 fantasy receiver entering the year.
