The NFL announced new rules and protocols for COVID-19 vaccinations. In turn, a rash number of NFL players voiced their concerns with the new rules put into place. One of them was Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, who tweeted then deleted the tweet that had some people thinking he was signaling his retirement.
However, the Cardinals star later clarified and said he isn't planning on going anywhere.
Btw I got about 9 more years in me, y’all have a good day 😎

Hopkins really sent everybody into a spiral and stole the attention of social media on a day that was taken over by the NFL after they essentially gave more flexibility to vaccinated players.
It's good news that Hopkins isn't planning on hanging it up anytime soon. One of the best talents in the game certainly has not lost a step. He spent the first seven years of his career with the Houston texans before being traded to the Cardinals.
In 2020– his first season with the Cardinals– Hopkins had 115 catches for 1407 yards and six scores and developed quite the relationship with Kyler Murray. His former Texans teammate JJ Watt also made his way to Arizona, and the Cardinals have a lot of people excited headed into 2021.
Don't worry, Hopkins isn't going anywhere.
