DeAndre Hopkins Joins Patriots Coaching Staff | New England Patriots News

DeAndre Hopkins, the legendary wide receiver with over 1,000 catches and nearly 14,000 yards, is trading his cleats for a headset—joining the New England Patriots coaching staff for training camp. Reuniting with head coach Mike Vrabel, whom he played alongside in Houston and Tennessee, Hopkins will now mentor the Patriots’ receiving corps, including stars like A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs. Though he hasn’t officially retired, Vrabel confirmed Hopkins is here to coach—not play—bringing his elite experience to the offensive side as the team kicks off camp Saturday morning.
