New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick didn’t appear to be the least bit concerned that five-time All-Pro receiver DeAndre Hopkins signed with the Tennessee Titans.
The Patriots have been in pursuit of the star wideout over the last couple of months and even extended him an offer and a visit. But the Titans were the more aggressive team in negotiations, despite the Patriots having the edge in spending money.
Some have chalked that up to Belichick either not being as interested in Hopkins as originally believed or the legendary coach drawing a hard line at the negotiating table.
