Deandre Hopkins to Play Against Browns per Reports
In this story:
The Cleveland Browns will host the Tennessee Titans at Cleveland Browns Stadium on Sunday at 1 p.m. One of the big question marks on the Titans side has been answered ahead of the matchup.
Wide receiver Deandre Hopkins who popped up on the team's injury report late in the week will play according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
Hopkins did not practice on Friday and was listed as questionable for the game according to the final injury report put out by the Titans. The assumption is that Hopkins must have injured the ankle during Thursday's practice since he was a full participant in the practice on Wednesday.
Hopkins will present a challenge for the Browns secondary without Greg Newsome, who has already been ruled out with an elbow injury. Hopkins will likely see snaps on the outside, as well as in the slot. It will be to be determined as to whether the injury could impact Hopkin's play on the field. Hopkins has been the Titans' leading receiver through two games with 105 yards receiving on 11 catches.
There was a ton of speculation during the offseason about a possible reunion for Hopkins with Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson. The two had a ton of success during their time together in Houston with each playing at an elite level. The Browns openly acknowledged having interest in signing Hopkins but the price the Titans were willing to pay far outmatched what they could.
