BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR38
ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has had a slow start to the season after suffering a knee injury in training camp. The veteran had two receptions on three targets for 17 receiving yards and 2.7 half-point PPR fantasy points over the first two weeks, playing 44% of the snaps or less in both contests.
However, Hopkins had a bounce-back performance in the Week 3 loss to the Green Bay Packers. The former superstar had six receptions on seven targets for 73 receiving yards and a touchdown, scoring 16.3 fantasy points. He led the targets despite finishing fourth in routes run (20).

Hopkins faces the Miami Dolphins on Monday night. Miami has held wide receivers to 21.8 fantasy points per game this season, the ninth-fewest in the NFL. However, that number is misleading because of their blowout Week 2 loss to the Buffalo Bills.
The Dolphins have surrendered 166.5 receiving yards, one touchdown, and 28.3 fantasy points per game to wide receivers in their other two contests. While the veteran won’t have a massive performance in Week 4, fantasy players can trust Hopkins as a WR3 or flex option in deeper leagues.
