Although Bill Belichick didn't sound too keen to discuss the chances of DeAndre Hopkins joining the New England Patriots, his secret message to him made it clear that he's a huge fan.
Hopkins is reportedly set to visit with the Patriots this week after leaving Tennessee without a deal, having been with the Titans this past weekend. Hopkins was shockingly released by the Arizona Cardinals last month, with the team somehow not able to find a trade partner for him - making the superstar wide receiver an unrestricted free agent and able to join wherever he likes.
A number of teams are said to be interested in signing Hopkins this offseason, with the Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns seen as likely landing spots. But it is only the Titans and Patriots who will have discussed a deal at their facility with Hopkins - with the latter team in serious need of signing him.
