Chiefs Acquire WR DeAndre Hopkins in Trade With Titans
Deal Includes Running Back Derrick Henry
The Kansas City Chiefs and Tennessee Titans have agreed to terms on a blockbuster trade that will send wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins to Kansas City. In exchange, the Titans will receive running back Derrick Henry, a 2023 first-round pick, and a 2024 second-round pick.
Hopkins a Major Addition for Chiefs
Hopkins is one of the most productive receivers in the NFL, having recorded over 1,000 receiving yards in each of the past seven seasons. He is a three-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro selection. Hopkins is expected to be a major weapon for the Chiefs' offense, which already features quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce.
Titans Get Henry, Draft Picks
Henry is a two-time Pro Bowl selection and the NFL's leading rusher in 2020. He is one of the most physical running backs in the league and is known for his punishing running style. Henry will give the Titans a much-needed boost in the running game, which ranked 29th in the NFL in 2022.
Trade Deadline Looms
The trade comes just ahead of the NFL's trade deadline on Tuesday, November 1st. The Chiefs and Titans are both looking to make a push for the playoffs, and this trade could be a significant boost for both teams.
