The Kansas City Chiefs made a major addition to their offense on Thursday by acquiring veteran wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins from the Tennessee Titans.

Here are five things to know about the newest member of the team.

1. Hopkins is a three-time First-Team All-Pro selection.

The 32-year-old Hopkins has been among the top playmakers in the NFL ever since entering the league as a first-round pick of the Houston Texans in 2013. In that time, he leads all players in targets (1,526), catches (943), receiving yards (12,528), receiving first downs (652) and catches of 25+ yards (113) while ranking third in receiving touchdowns (79). Additionally, his 74.6 career receiving yards-per-game ranks 11th in NFL history.

Coming into this season, he had posted a 1,000-yard campaign in seven of his 11 years as a professional, doing so most recently in 2023. He's a five-time Pro Bowl and All-Pro selection, earning First-Team honors in 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Hopkins has 15 grabs for 173 yards and a touchdown in six games this year.

2. He caught 75 passes for 1,057 yards last season.

Hopkins managed to post solid numbers yet again last season despite playing on an offense that struggled to move the ball as a whole. Tennessee owned the No. 28 total offense in the league last year behind quarterbacks Ryan Tannehill (8 starts) and rookie Will Levis (9 starts).

Despite those circumstances, however, Hopkins still led Tennessee in catches (75), receiving yards (1,057), receiving first downs (48) and receiving touchdowns (7) by a wide margin. In fact, Hopkins' 137 targets led Tennessee by 60. He led the Titans' next closest player in catches by 21, receiving yards by 529, receiving first downs by 23 and receiving touchdowns by four.

It's all to say that Hopkins was the focal point of the Titans' passing attack last year, and while defenses knew that, he still racked up solid numbers.

3. Hopkins has primarily been an outside receiver during his professional career.

The 6-foot-1, 212-pound Hopkins has lined up as an outside receiver on 79.1 percent of his career snaps, per Pro Football Focus. When looking at individual seasons specifically, he's served as an outside receiver on at least 70 percent of his season-by-season snaps in all but two of his 12 campaigns as a professional.

It will be interesting to see how Hopkins fits in the Chiefs' offense this year, but if history is any indication, he'll be lining up outside quite a bit.

4. He's as reliable and sure-handed as they come.

Hopkins has dropped just 35 passes on 1,465 targets during his career, which works out to a "drop rate" of just 3.6 percent. He has just nine drops (on 460 targets) since the 2020 season.

He also has at least once catch in 168 consecutive regular-season games, which marks the longest active streak for any player since 2013. Hopkins is the only player with a longer streak than Chiefs' tight end Travis Kelce, who owns a 164-game streak.

5. Nearly 70 percent of his career catches have either resulted in a first down or a touchdown.

Hopkins has often made the most of his receptions, too, as exactly 69.1 percent of his career catches have picked up either a first down or a touchdown. He has averaged 13.3 yards-per-catch for his career, and looking at last season specifically, his 14.1 yards-per-catch average marked his highest since the 2017 season.

Hopkins has simply been one of the league's best playmakers over the last 12 years, and now a member of the Chiefs, he'll join Kansas City's bid to make history in 2024.
