DeAndre Hopkins expected to play Thursday night

Tennessee Titans veteran WR DeAndre Hopkins (toe), who was listed as questionable for Thursday Night Football, is expected to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers despite his late-week injury downgrade.

Fantasy Impact: “Nuk” had a statement performance in Week 8 when he caught three touchdown passes from rookie QB Will Levis in his NFL debut. However, it may have been for naught for fantasy football purposes – he had only one top-24 half-PPR WR performance before Week 8, so Hopkins may have been on most fantasy managers’ benches. In a matchup that has been mostly favorable for WRs all season, Hopkins comes in as the Expert Consensus Ranking’s WR19, though rookie CB Joey Porter Jr. has proven to be a lockdown corner early on when he gets playing time.
