Expect more of DeAndre Hopkins in his second game with the Kansas City Chiefs, Grant Gordon of NFL.com reports.
At least that's what head coach Andy Reid is prognosticating.
Hopkins impressively played 22 snaps for the Chiefs in their win Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders despite officially getting dealt to his new squad just three days prior.
Reid sees a lot more ahead for Nuk on Monday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
"He was chomping at the bit on the sideline wanting to play," Reid said Monday, via team transcript, "and at the same time, knowing that he didn't have all of it down so there was a patience there, but he was into the game and I think you'll be able to see more this next game."
All told, Hopkins played 32.4% of Kansas City's offensive snaps, running 14 routes and catching two passes on three targets for 29 yards.
"I thought he looked good out there – did a nice job," Reid said. "He did a nice job in the run game, did a nice job in the pass game, had the big third down catch right off the bench and did well with that."
