Adidas has just announced the signing of Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, who will become the face of Adidas Football's adizero franchise- the lightest cleat in the game.
“adidas has built a ton of energy with their combination of innovation and style and I wanted to partner with them to help build on this momentum,” said Hopkins. “I felt this was the perfect fit for me because adidas is already known for speed and I am excited about the potential to get involved with their work in fashion and culture - such as helping to bring a ‘cleathead’ culture to life.”
Hopkins is coming off his second consecutive 1,000 receiving yard season and career-highs in receptions (111) and touchdowns (11. He will join an Adidas roster that already includes Von Miller, Aaron Rodgers, Josh Norman, Eric Berry, DeMarco Murray and others.
