On Monday, news broke that former Clemson star and current Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is being suspended six games for violating the NFL’s policy on performance-enhancing drugs.
Hopkins released a statement Monday night, tweeting “See you Week 7.” He posted a message saying he was “confused and shocked” upon learning he had tested positive for a banned substance.
Hopkins, a five-time Pro Bowler, played only 10 games last season due to a hamstring injury and then a season-ending MCL injury that he suffered in Week 14 in December. He finished the 2021 season with 42 catches for 572 yards and a team-high eight receiving touchdowns.
