DeAndre Hopkins Fantasy

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught just four of his 10 targets for 35 yards in Week 17 against the Los Angeles Rams. The Cardinals offense was put in a tough spot early on when Kyler Murray (ankle) left the game early in the first quarter with an ankle injury. Backup quarterback Chris Streveler took over and remained in the game until Murray returned in the fourth. Hopkins finishes his first year as a Cardinal with 115 catches for 1,372 yards and six touchdowns on 160 targets. With another offseason to work with the team's young franchise quarterback, Murray, Hopkins should be primed for a big year two in Arizona. He should be one of the first receivers off the board in 2021 fantasy drafts.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hip) is questionable for Week 17 against the Los Angeles Rams. He's been dealing with a hip injury this week. He missed practice to start the week before being upgraded to limited, which might suggest that he'll be able to go this weekend. Hopkins and the Cardinals face the league's top pass defense in Week 17. The Rams are allowing just 192.3 passing yards per game. In his first game against the Rams this year, Hopkins managed to catch eight of his 13 targets for 52 yards and a touchdown. Expect a similar result if he's active this week. He's seen at least 11 targets in each of his past four games and is almost single-handedly carrying the Cardinals passing game at this point.

Arizona Cardinals wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins (hip) and Larry Fitzgerald (groin) and linebacker Haason Reddick (hip) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. Both receivers are likely just being rested early in the week ahead of a must-win Week 17 matchup with the division-rival Rams and their tough defense. Hopkins is likely to draw All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey in a rematch from Week 13 when Hopkins caught eight passes on 13 targets for 52 yards and a touchdown. Nuk has had some ups and downs in the second half of the season with quarterback Kyler Murray (leg) batting injuries, but he remains a must-start WR1 for the regular season finale. The 37-year-old Fitzgerald caught six passes and played on 86 percent of the offensive snaps last week, but he had only 28 yards in the loss to San Fran. Fitz has been a rarely used safety blanket for Murray in 2020.
