Hopkins Wants Burrow: A Star Receiver's Dream QB?
4 May
Summary
- DeAndre Hopkins expressed a desire to play with Joe Burrow.
- He praised Burrow's toughness and ability to reach the Super Bowl.
- A move is considered unlikely due to the Bengals' strong WR depth.
DeAndre Hopkins has publicly stated his interest in playing alongside Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow.
Hopkins praised Burrow's toughness and leadership, noting his ability to guide a team to the Super Bowl early in his career. He believes Burrow can achieve this again with additional support.
However, the prospect of Hopkins joining the Bengals faces significant hurdles. The team already possesses a formidable wide receiver corps, led by Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. This depth at the position makes it unlikely the Bengals would pursue another high-profile receiver.
While Hopkins has previously caught passes from notable quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson, his expressed desire for Burrow highlights the quarterback's standing in the league. Despite the unlikelihood, the idea of such a pairing has generated discussion.
