So DeAndre Hopkins has found a healthy middle ground. He doesn't practice every day, and he's also not good. He is great. He is leading the league in receiving yards. He is going to the Pro Bowl. He is coming off of a season-high 169 receiving yards. And he is also sitting some days out.
The Cardinals wide receiver has caught some criticism for that. So now, he is hoping to set the record straight.
"Practices attended" is not a stat.
