The Kansas City Chiefs got exactly what they were hoping out of new wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins on Monday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
After Hopkins hauled in a beautiful catch from quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the first half, the new Chiefs wideout finished the drive with a nifty touchdown catch. What made it great was the celebration after, which was borrowed from the sports drama Remember the Titans.
If you’ll recall, Hopkins was literally just traded from the Tennessee Titans to the Chiefs last month, so this seems like a pretty unsubtle troll directed at his old team to us.
Kansas City will want to see more fireworks from Hopkins in the weeks ahead, and we’re sure he’ll deliver even more memorable moments.
Just a couple weeks after being traded by the Titans, DeAndre Hopkins did the Remember the Titans dance after his TD 👀
