DeAndre Hopkins dismissed the notion that he was flipping off a caravan of President Trump supporters while on the way to the Arizona Cardinals home game on Sunday simply because of who they were, explaining instead that the dispute was started by the group of drivers among whom he inadvertently ended up.
