DeAndre Hopkins

DeAndre Hopkins told reporters that he’s dealing with a knee sprain and not a tear after Thursday’s practice.

Hopkins compared the injury to a sprained ankle. It had been reported earlier that the wideout had been dealing with a tear in his knee, but Hopkins was quick to shut that down. Regardless, Hopkins is not on the injury report for Sunday’s game against the Jets, but fantasy managers will have to be prepared for some potential maintenance for the 32-year-old during the 2024 campaign.
