Ravens Again Linked to DeAndre Hopkins

Every time wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has been a free agent or on the trade block, the Ravens were mentioned as potential suitors for the five-time Pro Bowler. This offseason is no different.

Fox Sports’ Henry McKenna predicted Hopkins, a pending free agent, will sign with Baltimore.

“Hopkins is fading, but he’s the type of receiver who could help the Ravens, who have as good a shot as anyone at making the Super Bowl next season,” McKenna wrote. “Hopkins, 32, has made plenty of money. He’s ring chasing. Baltimore should have the right amount of snaps for a receiver like Hopkins, who would play behind Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews, Isaiah Likely and probably Rashod Bateman. And I suspect that would be just fine for Hopkins.”

Hopkins, who was traded from Tennessee Titans to the Kansas City Chiefs before the trade deadline last year, finished the season with 56 catches for 610 yards and five touchdowns.

Hopkins didn’t make a significant impact in the postseason, where he had three receptions for 29 yards and a touchdown over three games. His touchdown catch came in the Chiefs’ loss to the Eagles in the Super Bowl.

On a side note, Davante Adams, another big-name wide receiver often linked to the Ravens, was released by the New York Jets Tuesday. Adams, 32, surpassed 1,000 yards receiving this past season for the sixth time in seven years.
