Breaking down Chiefs wide receiver Hollywood Brown's injury from earlier this year and how he has been integrated into the team since returning.

While Hopkins is expected to play a significant role in the offense as the Chiefs aim for an NFL-record third consecutive Super Bowl title, his longer-term role with the team is not clear. Hopkins will be a free agent at the end of the NFL year, with no indication whether the Chiefs will try to bring him back on a new contract.

Xavier Worthy credits his late-season surge to working with DeAndre Hopkins and Marquise Brown, a pair of veteran wide receivers who took the first-round pick under their wing.

Kansas City Chiefs receiver DeAndre Hopkins has a long history with the Houston Texans. The veteran standout began his career in Houston and ranks second all-time in franchise history in receptions, receiving yards and touchdowns. And he has a vast knowledge of the Texans-Chiefs playoff history.

The Kansas City Chiefs traded for DeAndre Hopkins midway through the season, back when the two-time defending Super Bowl champs had lost wide receivers Marquise Brown and Rashee Rice to injuries, and the hope was that the three-time All-Pro could help to stabilize a position group that had struggled for years.
