Cardinals Release DeAndre Hopkins
Wide receiver let go during roster reset under new GM Monti Ossenfort
Famously, after DeAndre Hopkins hauled in his famous "Hail Murray" touchdown against the Bills in 2020, he took to the postgame Zoom interview session to utter his most memorable quote in Arizona.
The Bills, he said, had him surrounded. "It was just a better catch by I," Hopkins said.
There were plenty of times when the wide receiver made the better catch while with the Cardinals. But with the team resetting its roster under a new GM and coach, and with Hopkins carrying a $30 million salary cap charge while missing 15 of the past 26 games between suspension and injury, moving on from the soon-to-be 31-year-old made sense.
After weeks of speculation and the Cardinals unable to find a trade partner, Hopkins was released on Friday.
