DeAndre Hopkins on pace to shatter single-season target record

After putting up 11 receptions for 169 yards on 14 targets against the Indianapolis Colts last Thursday, Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has now been targeted 74 times in five games.

That has him on pace to shatter the single-season record set by former Arizona Cardinals receiver Rob Moore back in 1997. Hopkins, a third-year pro out of Clemson, is also on pace to come close to both the single-season reception and yardage marks for a wide receiver.

We know looking at where a player projects after just five games can be a fool's game, but all indications are that Hopkins will continue to receive an absurd amount of targets.
