David Johnson will get a fresh start in 2020 after the Arizona Cardinals reportedly traded the former Pro Bowl running back to the Houston Texans, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The move doesn't come as a surprise since Johnson appeared to fall out of favor with head coach Kliff Kingsbury in the second half of the 2019 season. He had just 24 touches in his final seven games.

Johnson did miss two games because of an ankle injury, but he was healthy from Weeks 10-17. Kingsbury didn't even use him in Arizona's season finale against the Los Angeles Rams.
