The Kansas City Chiefs and Tennessee Titans could not be having more opposite seasons. Kansas City is 4-0 and looking to win yet another championship. The Titans are 0-3 and still seem to be searching for their franchise quarterback.
However, after recent events, the two franchises could be in business with each other.
Chiefs-Titans Suddenly Pegged To Pull Off Massive Trade (Report)
According to Alex Hoegler of Total Pro Sports:
With Rashee Rice and Marquise Brown out, it’s imperative for the Chiefs to bolster their wide receiver depth in their quest for a three-peat. And a rival AFC team just might have the solution the defending champions need.
That would be Tennessee Titans star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, who’s in the final year of his contract on a winless 0-3 team that’s nowhere close to contending. If KC wants a short-term replacement for Rice, Hopkins should be on their radar.
The rebuilding Titans made a colossal mistake by holding onto star running back Derrick Henry last year instead of trading him, only to watch the two-time rushing champion leave for nothing in free agency. They cannot afford to do the same with Hopkins.
A seven-time 1,000-yard wide receiver, Hopkins would immediately slot in as the Chiefs’ WR1 with Rashee Rice absent. At the age of 32, “Nuk” should be motivated to play for a contender at this phase of his career.
A conditional 2025 fourth-round pick, which could turn into a third-round pick based on Hopkins’ performance, as well as a 2026 fifth-round pick could be offered to the Titans. Tennessee cannot expect a big return on Hopkins, since he is in the last year of his contract.
This move could be a low risk high reward type of move for a team chasing yet another championship.
