Patriots are interested in Texans' DeAndre Hopkins
The New England Patriots offered linebacker Jamie Collins to the Houston Texans for wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins back in October, according to NFL's Network's Ian Rapoport.
What It Means:
They ended up trading Collins to the Cleveland Browns after getting a hard pass from Houston, but it's notable that the Pats have interest in Hopkins, who is headed for free agency after 2017. Hopkins would be an immediate upgrade and perhaps the most talented receiver New England has had since Randy Moss. Hopkins recently said that he loves playing for the Texans, so he doesn't seem to be pushing to leave despite a poor offense around him.
41 receivers saw at least 100 targets in 2016. Hopkins's Reception Net Expected Points per target ranked eighth-worst among them due to atrocious quarterback play.
