What to make of the Patriots’ reported interest in free agent WR DeAndre Hopkins

The old “Where there’s smoke there’s fire” does not always apply to the NFL. Will apply to the New England Patriots and DeAndre Hopkins, though?

The team of head coach Bill Belichick has been linked to the star wide receiver throughout the offseason, and with him recently released by the Arizona Cardinals there appears to be a chance that it will indeed go after him. And while there has been nothing concrete yet — like inviting him for a visit, for example — the rumor mill keeps working.

The latest report comes courtesy of NFL insider Dianna Russini, who appeared on ESPN’s Get Up on Thursday to talk about Hopkins’ free agency experience.
