After being among those who have stoked the flames of the DeAndre-Hopkins-to-the-Kansas-City-Chiefs story in recent weeks, Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer backed off a little in Monday’s MMQB column.
He characterized the Hopkins market as “murky” — but noted that the free agent wide receiver’s decision to hire agent Kelton Crenshaw (of the Klutch agency) should help move things along, since it now appears that a $15 million (up to $18 million) contract like the one the Baltimore Ravens gave to Odell Beckham Jr. might no longer be in the cards.
