Patriots appear to be out of DeAndre Hopkins sweepstakes, for now

The New England Patriots are reportedly not pursuing a trade for wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins after much speculation.

Jeff Howe of The Athletic published a column Friday morning, which essentially stated that Arizona would want too much in return for the wide receiver.

Hopkins’ production is undeniable. He caught 64 catches for 717 yards and three touchdowns in nine games last season. He had to miss several games following a PED suspension. At 30 years of age, he is still very much a threat at the wide receiver position.

The Patriots upgraded at wide receiver a bit this off-season, signing JuJu Smith-Schuster to a three-year deal.
