DeAndre Hopkins (knee) will have closer to a full workload in Week 2.
Fantasy Impact
Hopkins was limited in Week 1’s loss to the Bears because of a knee injury, but he is recovering well and will handle closer to a full workload in Week 2. The Titans will continue to evaluate his recovery on a day-to-day basis, and he should be a decent enough depth option for fantasy purposes when he’s back to a full workload on the field.
