After being traded from the Tenenssee Titans to the Kansas City Chiefs, DeAndre Hopkins says he hasn't played "meaningful football in a couple years."

That appeared to happen to DeAndre Hopkins while discussing the trade that sent him from the Titans to the two-time defending champion Chiefs.  Hopkins, who was dealt to Kansas City on Wednesday, expressed appreciation for his former employer for sending him to what is possibly the most desirable situation in all of sports.

Once upon a time, as a superstar receiver, DeAndre Hopkins had the option to sign whomever he wanted as a high-profile free agent. He could’ve joined a championship contender (like, say, the Kansas City Chiefs), but apparently, contenders weren’t willing to pay him what he wanted. That’s totally fair.
