One must admit, DeAndre Hopkins has good taste.
He must have gotten used to the good life when he was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs last season. He got to play with quarterback Patrick Mahomes and see what it was like to participate in a Super Bowl.
The veteran free agent agreed to join another AFC powerhouse with a former two-time NFL Most Valuable Player.
Hopkins agreed to terms on Tuesday evening on a one-year deal worth $6 million with the Baltimore Ravens. He will be catching passes from Lamar Jackson, who is no stranger to winning division titles and playing in the AFC Championship Game.
The story was first reported by Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network Tuesday evening.
Hopkins, a 12-year veteran played for the Tennessee Titans at the beginning of last season before being dealt to the Chiefs as they were undergoing a shortage at the position due to injuries. He caught 56 passes for 610 yards and five touchdowns.

Despite being north of the age of 30, he is still a very serviceable player. He will have the opportunity to win a starting job in training camp and will get to work with Jackson in the offseason.
Hopkins signed with the Ravens as he is chasing the elusive Super Bowl championship. He came close this past season with Kansas City, but the Chiefs came up on the short end of the score, losing to the Philadelphia Eagles 40-22.
Hopkins also re-joins former teammate running back Derrick Henry. The two played together in Tennessee.
