DeAndre Hopkins is very private about his dating life, so it was a little surprising that he posted this NYE photo with BreAnna Young.
Granted, it wasn’t up for long, but that is the closest you will get him acknowledging his girlfriend via Wags Unfiltered 2.0. Ms. Young deleted her Instagram page, so she is as private as him. As far as if Hopkins will be back for the playoffs with the Cardinals, here is what we know.
Arizona Cardinals stars DeAndre Hopkins and J.J. Watt are both on injured reserve, and head coach Kliff Kingsbury doesn’t see that changing any time soon.
“I’m not sure either one will make it back,” Kingsbury said Saturday, via ESPN’s Ed Werder. “I think it will be close.”
Hopkins, 29, was acquired from the Houston Texans in a 2020 trade and finished his first season with the Cardinals with 115 receptions and 1,407 yards. Production in his second season in Arizona dropped off, however, as Hopkins struggled through hamstring problems before tearing his MCL in a Week 14 game. According to Ian Rapoport, he underwent surgery and hoped for a late January return.
Watt, 32, is in his first season with the Cardinals after joining Arizona as a free agent in the offseason. In October he suffered a shoulder injury that required surgery to repair, and Kingsbury left the door open for a possible return.
The Cardinals snapped their three-game losing streak with a big win versus the Cowboys on the road.
They will likely need to win at least one and maybe two playoff games for Hopkins to have a shot at a return. If they were to make it all the way to the Super Bowl, he would definitely be available.
A rematch with the Cowboys could be on deck for the playoffs, but the Cardinals still have a shot at the NFC West crown, and that would move them up the #2 or #3 seed.
