Legendary Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald doesn't believe a six-game suspension for performance-enhancing drugs will prevent current Cards wideout DeAndre Hopkins from getting into the Pro Football Hall of Fame one day.
Fitz made the proclamation during an interview with TMZ Sports this weekend:
"He'll still be a Hall of Famer," Fitzgerald said. "He's talented and he'll work through it. It's just some adversity and, you know, he's a tough guy, resourceful, and he'll work his way through it."
After the suspension was announced this month, Hopkins' brand manager, Doug Sanders, told ESPN's Adam Schefter (h/t ESPN's Josh Weinfuss) that Hopkins tested positive for "trace elements of a banned substance" in November but tested negative in the prior and subsequent months.
