The recent tweet by NFL Notifications’ official Twitter account stated, “If Bills, Chiefs or Browns offered money close to the Titans or Patriots, he would be signed today. He wants a combo of money + a chance to win. Hopkins isn’t “thrilled” to have Mac Jones or Tannehill throwing him passes in 2023, but he leans toward the patriots if those remain the only two options.”

Additionally, a recent announcement from Hopkins on his retirement has gained headlines. Along with spilling the beans on his retirement, Hopkins also shared a few insights on his game.

DeAndre Hopkins revealing his retirement period

The popular “The Pat McAfee Show” featured a recent thread from DeAndre Hopkins which revealed the details about WR’s retirement. Hopkins shared in his thread, “I’ll retire from football when I’m not a 1k-yard receiver. With that said, I was on pace for 1,400 yards last year~one significant injury in 11 years, I might be playing till I’m 37 the way I feel.”

As per Hopkins, by the age of 37, he’ll call it off from the league. However, still, there are 6 glory-filled years for the WR, considering he’s 31 at present. Moreover, reacting to his tweet Pat McAfee said about Hopkins, “When defenses know that this dude is the guy to cover he is somehow figured out a way to catch balls all over the field is he a deep threat.” Clearly one of the reasons why franchises want Hopkins in their camp. Meanwhile, what do you think D-Hop is going to land with which franchise?
