DeAndre Hopkins has found himself amid several NFL offseason conversations.
When the offseason began, many rumors had surfaced, mainly about Hopkins’ unhappiness with the Arizona Cardinals.
The Cardinals finished the 2022 campaign with a 4-13 record, and Hopkins likely wants to be traded to a contender, if recent reporting is correct.
Hopkins was initially quiet on the situation, letting reporters and NFL analysts speak for him.
However, it appears that he might be getting more desperate for a trade if his recent tweet is any indication.
On Sunday, DeAndre Hopkins tweeted that he’s not looking for a raise. He thereafter deleted it.

As ML Football shows, Hopkins recently posted a tweet, which was then deleted.
In this tweet, Hopkins refers to himself as a reporter of sorts, saying “Hopkins doesn’t want a raise” – Nuk.
When reading between the lines, it appears that Hopkins isn’t looking for any more money.
Currently, his contract is for $54 million, per the terms of his contract extension.
After a season that the Cardinals went 4-13, it’s not surprising that Hopkins wants to get traded away from this team.
If the Cardinals do end up granting him a trade, several teams are likely to line up.
The Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, and New York Jets are just a few teams that have been named as potential destinations.
Lately, the Miami Dolphins have also been mentioned as a destination, but they do have Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle already on the books.
The Chiefs lack a true number-one receiver, and the Bills have been in search of a receiving partner for Stefon Diggs.
When the Hopkins saga has concluded, what team will he end up on?
