By <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/ravens-news-deandre-hopkins-signing-baltimore-super-bowl-loss-chiefs">signing with the Baltimore Ravens in free agency</a>, Hopkins allowed the trio he mocked up years ago to come to fruition.</p><p>Once Hopkins signed with the Ravens, fans immediately trudged up the old photo he posted with Jackson and Henry in 2020. In it, the veteran wideout asked fans how many touchdowns the hypothetical trio would account for. With the theoretical scenario now materialized, Hopkins was <a href="https://x.com/Ravens/status/1900582467150774562" rel="noopener">forced to address it</a> but gave an evasive answer to his own question.</p><p>“I did not think there was a possibility [we would ever play together],” Hopkins said in an interview posted to the team website. “The number [of touchdowns we score] is enough to win the amount of games we need to win. Hopefully, it’s more than a little bit.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">.<a href="https://twitter.com/DeAndreHopkins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@DeAndreHopkins</a> weighs in on his viral pic with <a href="https://twitter.com/Lj_era8?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Lj_era8</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/KingHenry_2?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@KingHenry_2</a> 😂 <a href="https://t.co/EBEnpqzh88">pic.twitter.com/EBEnpqzh88</a></p><p>— Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) <a href="https://twitter.com/Ravens/status/1900582467150774562?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 14, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Four years after the original photo, neither Hopkins nor Henry are still in their athletic primes. That has not seemed to affect Henry, who is coming off a 1,921-yard rushing season, but it has clearly taken a toll on Hopkins. The 32-year-old managed just 610 receiving yards in 2024, his fewest in a full season.</p><p>Despite Hopkins’ clearly diminished form, his presence provides meaningful experience to an otherwise young Ravens receiving room. Before his signing, Baltimore’s most experienced wideout was scarcely used seven-year veteran Anthony Miller.</p><h2><b>Ravens’ Super Bowl aspirations with DeAndre Hopkins addition</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Ravens.jpg"><figcaption>Mandatory Credit: Mitch Stringer-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>DeAndre Hopkins also joins the team as a proven winner, coming off a Super Bowl LIX appearance with the Kansas City Chiefs. The game marked the first Super Bowl appearance of his 12-year career.</p><p>While head coach John Harbaugh has a ring on his resume, neither one of Lamar Jackson or Derrick Henry has ever made a Super Bowl. Adding that level of experience to the roster made Hopkins one of the Ravens’ biggest free agency additions.</p><p>Coming off three consecutive playoff appearances — including one AFC Championship Game berth — the Ravens are aching to get over the hump and return to the Super Bowl for the first time since 2012. They will seemingly have the best chance to do so in 2025 with their most complete roster of the Jackson-led era.</p><p>Despite <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/ravens-news-mark-andrews-breaks-silence-devastating-bills-loss">losing to the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round</a>, the 2024 campaign was a highly successful one for Baltimore. Jackson took a considerable leap as a passer, leading to second-year wideout Zay Flowers’ first Pro Bowl nod. Regardless of the disappointing finish, the Ravens’ offense looked better than it ever had, including Jackson’s two MVP seasons.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

We are excited to watch him play and congratulate DeAndre and his family.”</p><p>Hopkins’ deal with the Ravens is worth $6 million for one year, so it will be worth seeing how he performs in the high-powered offense.</p><p>Hopkins to the Ravens has been a long time coming, and ESPN’s Bill Barnwell mentioned that Baltimore was <a href="https://x.com/billbarnwell/status/1900189270763024744" rel="noopener">trying to trade</a> for him in 2020.</p><p>‘Ravens were attempting to trade for DeAndre Hopkins when the Cardinals landed him in 2020. Now, five years later, they’ve got him.’</p><p>Hopkins turns 33 in June, but he can still produce at a high level. In 2024, between the Titans and the Chiefs, he had over 600 yards with five scores, with most of that coming with the Chiefs.</p><p>Hopkins is just one season removed from a 75-catch, 1,057-yard campaign with the Tennessee Titans, which came in 2023. If DeAndre Hopkins can play at a high level in 2025, it would be a big boost for the Ravens’ offense.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

On Tuesday, they <a href="https://x.com/RapSheet/status/1899597442049319112" rel="noopener">continued that effort in a big way</a> when they agreed to a one-year, $6 million deal with veteran wideout DeAndre Hopkins, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/chiefs-news-deandre-hopkins-sends-heartfelt-message-after-super-bowl">Hopkins spent last season with the Chiefs</a> after a midseason trade with the Tennessee Titans. While he didn’t put up huge numbers, the former Houston Texans star was a reliable weapon for Patrick Mahomes. He caught 41 balls for 437 yards and four touchdowns in 10 games with Kansas City and also had a touchdown catch in its Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.</p><p>Hopkins is one of the best wide receivers of the last 15 years in the NFL. He comes to Baltimore with 984 career catches and 83 touchdowns, so his experience will be a massive benefit to the rest of the wide receiver room.</p><p>Hopkins hasn’t made a Pro Bowl or an All-Pro team since 2020 and has only eclipsed 1,000 yards in a season one time since then in 2023. However, the Ravens are hoping that Hopkins will give Jackson a reliable target on the outside and in the red zone even if his volume in the passing game isn’t through the roof.</p><p>Stylistically, it’s easy to see why the Ravens like this fit with Hopkins joining the offense. Baltimore has a lot of smaller slot receivers, most notably Zay Flowers, but they don’t really have a big body on the outside that provides a more physical element in the passing game.</p><p>Hopkins can be a ball-winner for Jackson and company that can be a true bailout option in some situations. Oftentimes, Jackson is tasked with making a play all by himself if the original call is snuffed out or doesn’t work for another reason. Now, Hopkins can do that at times by making contested catches down the field.</p><p>Overall, Hopkins may not have the numbers that he did in his prime years with the Texans or in his first season with the Arizona Cardinals. However, he will still be a very valuable asset to this Ravens offense as it looks to get over the hump in 2025.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Now the Chiefs must transition into offseason mode and focus on improving the team in the future. There is still a possibility that it includes WR DeAndre Hopkins, despite recent rumors about his retirement.</p><p>Hopkins posted, and then deleted, a message on social media <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/deandre-hopkins-tweets-deletes-im-not-done-yet" rel="noopener">firing back at retirement rumors about himself</a>.</p><p>“Don’t know what you heard but I’m not done yet,” Hopkins said in the deleted post, per Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk.</p><p>Hopkins was responding to a tweet by a fake Adam Schefter account. That post claimed that Chiefs head coach Andy Reid told reporters that Hopkins had informed the team about his intention to retire from the NFL.</p><p>Hopkins in fact has no plans to retire and is set to become a free agent this spring. It is currently unknown whether or not he will return to the Chiefs this offseason.</p><p>Hopkins finished the 2024 regular season with 56 receptions for 610 yards and five touchdowns split between Tennessee and Kansas City.</p><p>There will be a market for his services in free agency, assuming he does not stay in Kansas City.</p><h2><b>DeAndre Hopkins sends heartfelt message after possible final Chiefs game in Super Bowl 59</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Kansas-City-Chiefs-WR-DeAndre-Hopkins.jpg"><figcaption>Jay Biggerstaff-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/chiefs-news-deandre-hopkins-sends-heartfelt-message-after-super-bowl">DeAndre Hopkins had previously posted a heartfelt message to Chiefs fans</a> following Super Bowl 59.</p><p>“Forever grateful to be part of the Chiefs organization,” Hopkins said in his post. “Didn’t complete the mission or play my best game but that’s life.”</p><p>Hopkins is referring to one crucial play that he let slip through his fingers, both literally and metaphorically.</p><p>The play occurred in the final minute of the second quarter. Kansas City was down 24-0 and attempting to drive down the field quickly and get on the board before halftime. On third and 11, Patrick Mahomes scrambles outside the pocket and slings a pass towards Hopkins, who is streaking across the field unguarded.</p><p>Unfortunately, Hopkins <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PodIaVB4lHM&amp;ab_channel=TannerPhifer" rel="noopener">dropped the pass</a> and prevented what would have been a huge gain during a crucial part of the game. Kansas City was set to get the opening kickoff of the second half, so getting a score on that drive could have let the Chiefs double up on points. If that happened, the game could have ended very differently.</p><p>It will be interesting to see how the Chiefs address the wide receiver position this offseason.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
