He has made the playoffs simply 4 instances within the earlier 11 seasons and has by no means made a deep playoff run.
That is such an awesome alternative for him in Missouri.
The scary factor is that the Chiefs haven’t even been firing on all cylinders and are nonetheless unbeaten.
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes has thrown extra interceptions than touchdowns.
They’ve been riddled with accidents at each extensive receiver and working again, and star tight finish Travis Kelce hasn’t precisely been placing up ridiculous numbers.
Now, Hopkins can are available in and supply a ton of reliability and big-play potential.
Defenses will now have to decide on between protecting him, Kelce, speedster Xavier Worthy, and some other weapon that head coach Andy Reid decides to unleash.
Watching Mahomes throw Hopkins the ball may very well be an actual spectacle as nicely.
