• Chiefs' DeAndre Hopkins: Finds paydirt in Week 14 win

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Hopkins caught four of nine targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Chargers. Hopkins scored a nine-yard touchdown in the second quarter and got both hands on a deep ball just outside the end zone early in the fourth before having it knocked out by a jarring hit for an incomplete pass. He accounted for Kansas City's only touchdown of the game but finished third on the team in receiving yards behind Travis Kelce (45) and Xavier Worthy (41) despite pacing the team in targets. Hopkins has established himself as the No. 1 wide receiver in Kansas City heading into a Week 15 matchup with the Browns, notching nine targets in three of his last six games while scoring four touchdowns over that span.

• Chiefs' DeAndre Hopkins: Leads team with 90 yards

  12D ago • By RotoWire

  Hopkins had four receptions (on nine targets) for 90 yards in Friday's 19-17 win over Las Vegas. Hopkins snapped out of a marginal slump to post his highest receiving yardage total of both Friday's win and his season to date. The 32-year-old also recorded a season-worst 44 percent catch rate in order to become the Chiefs' leading receiver. Hopkins managed to help his offense beyond the box score by drawing two instrumental pass interference flags late in a hard-fought victory. He should continue providing flex value in most fantasy formats for next Sunday's home matchup against the Chargers in Week 14.

• Chiefs' DeAndre Hopkins: Catches short touchdown

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Hopkins recorded five receptions on six targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Panthers. Hopkins was fairly involved in the Kansas City offense, as he tied for second on the team in targets. He had a modest day from a yardage perspective, as he was used primarily in the short areas of the field to limit his longest gain to 12 yards. However, Hopkins did manage his third touchdown as a Chief late in the third quarter by cashing in from three yards away. While he should remain a key target down the stretch, Hopkins has lacked explosiveness by tallying more than 50 receiving yards in just two of five games since joining Kansas City.

• Chiefs' DeAndre Hopkins: Sleeper WRs

  19D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Hopkins hasn't been a reliable Fantasy receiver since joining the Chiefs, with one game of significance in four outings, but I like him as a No. 3 option in Week 12 against the Panthers. Xavier Worthy is also worth using as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver, and I expect Patrick Mahomes to pad his stats in this matchup coming off Kansas City's first loss of the season in Week 11 at Buffalo. There have been 10 receivers with at least 12.0 PPR points against Carolina this season, and two times where a pair of receivers did that in the same game. Hopkins and Worthy will hopefully join that list in Week 12.

• Chiefs' DeAndre Hopkins: Modest production Sunday

  24D ago • By RotoWire

  Hopkins caught three of four targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 30-21 loss to Buffalo. Hopkins actually finished as the team's second-leading receiver despite his mild statistical output Sunday. It was a rough day overall for Kansas City's key receivers outside of rookie Xavier Worthy (4-61-1). Hopkins was targeted in the end zone late in the contest, but he drew a pass interference penalty instead. The Chiefs will lick their wounds and try to bounce back in a softer matchup against the Panthers next Sunday.
