The Tennessee Titans are adding a weapon to their receiving corps. It was reported Sunday that the AFC South team is signing veteran free agent WR DeAndre Hopkins.
The #Titans are giving star WR DeAndre Hopkins a 2-year, $26M deal worth up to $32M with incentives, source said.

The pursuit of Hopkins has been one of the more intriguing stories of the latter part of the offseason. Speculation had the former Houston Texan and Arizona Cardinal flirting with the Buffalo Bills, Kansas City Chiefs, and New England Patriots.
However, he lands with the Titans, a team that needs a star wide receiver. Tennessee suffered last year after it traded WR A.J. Brown to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Hopkins has 853 receptions for 11,298 yards and 71 touchdowns. He spent the last three years in Arizona. Due to a variety of reasons, including an NFL-mandated suspension, Hopkins was limited to 19 total games over the past two seasons.

One would expect undrafted free agent rookie Kearis Jackson to be giving up the No. 10 he has been assigned.
