The Ravens are giving star quarterback Lamar Jackson another weapon. 

Baltimore has signed former Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins to a one-year contract potentially valued at $6 million, as disclosed by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport on Tuesday evening.

The deal comes with a $5 million value that includes an extra $1 million of incentives, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported.

This will be Hopkins’ third team in the past two years after he played the first seven years of his NFL career with the Texans. 

Hopkins, 32, started last season with the Titans before he was traded to the Chiefs in the middle of the year. 

He recorded 437 receiving yards and four touchdowns in the 10 games after the Titans dealt Hopkins at the deadline. 

Hopkins had two catches and a touchdown during the Super Bowl for the Chiefs, who ultimately fell to the Eagles.

Having been named a first-team All-Pro player three times, Hopkins has exceeded 1,000 receiving yards in seven seasons, with a notable streak from 2018 to 2020.

He had been a No. 27 overall pick during the 2013 NFL Draft. 

This move bolsters the Ravens’ receiving corps, which already features Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman, and reunites Hopkins with his former Titans colleague, running back Derrick Henry.

Hopkins heads to a Ravens team that is coming off a 12-5 season and was knocked out in the divisional round of the playoffs.
