Has NFL veteran wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins retired from the league?
Hopkins joined the Georgia Tech football staff this week as an assistant wide receivers coach, but he clarified on social media that this doesn't mean he's done playing football.
"I Haven’t retired from the [NFL]," Hopkins wrote on X (Twitter) on Saturday. "But if you're a WR and you want to be great, come to [Georgia Tech]."
The Houston Texans legend briefly spent some time with the New England Patriots coaching staff in July.
“DeAndre is one of the greatest receivers of all-time, but his value to our program goes far beyond the that,” Georgia Tech head football coach Brent Key said in a statement, via USA TODAY. “He has an exceptional knowledge of what we’re doing on offense
due his long relationship with [offensive coordinator] George Godsey and strong familiarity with the ACC, but most importantly, he’s a leader of men that I’m very excited for our players to be around, on and off the field.”
Where did Hopkins play last?
The Baltimore Ravens.
