Have we even found out what it is with his knee? Or when he possibly hurt his knee?

I haven't been able to find it. It could be a complete smokescreen given the fact that Hopkins has missed the last two practices but neither him nor O'Brien seem to be all that worried about his status this week.

Going off of the snap counts, looks like he played on all 63. So if he was hurt during the game, he didn't miss any time.

I think this is a complete smokescreen. Guy played Every snap and I watched game all the way through, not once did he even have to jog to sideline like he was hurt or shaken up. I think it's a way to get veteran rest and I guess you have to make up something for the inj report. Im not an expert on that but it seems like you do have to designate something to a player when they sit out practices, games etc. I don't think you can miss a practice because you want to rest and it's a day off I don't know what designation that would go under.

Describes my situation to a tee at 8-2. If Hopkins goes down its a disaster. Not sweating yet though

DeAndre Hopkins - WR - Texans
DeAndre Hopkins said his knee is 100 percent.
He's sat out the last two practices but it looks like the Texans are just managing his reps. Coach Bill O'Brien confirmed Hopkins will be ready to play against the Jets on Sunday. Even with the possibility of Darrelle Revis shadowing him, Hopkins remains a top-10 option in all formats.

Back at practice today (not sure if full or limited yet). Obviously a good sign.
He's officially listed as Probable.

Yeah, if he can't go, I have to roll with Givens, Seth Roberts, or Clive Walford
Just saw he's probable as of 3 hours ago. :fingerscrossed:

Beasting no matter the CB, no matter the QB.

So. Good.
Can we all agree at this point that Hopkins is on par with Antonio brown as the best fantasy wr in all the land?
This guy is a straight up baller. And he has had the wort hodgepodge of qbs throwing to him, no run game to speak of, and no Wrs pulling coverage away from him.
Just a dominant player.

He is ridiculous

Yates overthrew him when he had about 5 steps on Revis on the first drive. Would have been a 70 yard TD. Love you nuk.

Nothing bothers me more than when a WR make a first down grab when his team is down multiple scores and celebrates. Modesty is an underrated quality.

He was pretty under exploited vs the Saints today. At one point I saw Browner on Hop, omg just hot read and go deep Hoyer.
VikingFrog

I didn't get to watch the game. Seemed like Hoyer was definitely targeting him.
Also seemed Houston got ahead early and tried to run some clock and Hopkins wasn't really necessary as part of the game plan.

This guy's really taken a dump the past two weeks. With the likes of Doug Baldwin sitting on the bench.

the drive that he scored it was pretty much "OK 10, all you." He pushed off on the TD, surprised it wasn't called.

If Hopkins was playing with a top ten QB he would be unstoppable. I really wanted to see what he could do with a healthy Arian Foster and a solid run game to game plan for.
Time for him to get back to dominating.

Could really use 3 TDs from this guy this weekend.

Nice sig, how about those ISIS terrorists they'be been catching there. Must add to the perfection.

Ha. I'm usually on mobile, so I forget I even have a sig. That was a quote from Lyle Lovett at a concert a went to in Minnesota years ago. I'm in Texas now, so at least I know if ISIS does arrive, my neighbors probably have a hidden cache of semi auto rifles to defend ourselves.Couldn't we all....

Sure would be nice! My only concern is that Belichick aims to take the best player out of the game as much as he can?
Arodin, I just updated my post moments prior to your post! It takes some skill to outplay Johnson!

Weeden sucks so not feeling really good about this week. I'm really just hoping for at least WR2 numbers at least
I was annoyed he wouldn't hit Terrance Williams earlier- thinking a step is enough, throw the ball, that's all he's gonna get, throw it!
I wonder if he has the nerve to make the throws to Hopkins. Much of his game, now that he's a stud, is coming back for the ball and going up and getting it with the smothering coverage he sees.
Hopkins is 100 times better than Williams. Weeden did get cut and his career could be almost over, there's definitely some reason for him to have learned from that and try to improve and throw it anyway.
Aside from Cox, Hopkins should get open with ease this week.
Did he play with Gordon? Any stud WR where you can think he did chuck it to him while he was covered?
For what it's worth, Dodds has him projected for WR2 numbers. And by that, I mean the #2 overall WR, behind only Antonio Brown.
It's not just Dodds. Mike Clay and Jeff Ratcliffe have him 2nd, John Paulsen and the Sablich Brothers have him 3rd overall, and Scott Pianowski has him 4th. Those are the six most accurate fantasy experts over the last five years, according to FantasyPros. The entire rogues' gallery of fantasy rankers views Hopkins as an elite difference-maker this week.
Whether it'll actually come to pass remains up in the air, but at the moment it looks promising.
