The Baltimore Ravens have been inches away from conference championships and Super Bowl appearances during the Lamar Jackson era.
Despite a talented roster on both sides of the field, Baltimore hasn’t been able to crack the code in a deep AFC conference that also features the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Kansas City recently punched their ticket to the Super Bowl, ultimately losing to the Philadelphia Eagles in its third straight trip to the big game.
After their Super Bowl loss, a couple of contributors have decided to pack their bags for new opportunities, including wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.
Hopkins recently signed with the Ravens, seemingly helping Jackson and Baltimore get one step closer to their Super Bowl dreams.
“WELCOME TO BALTIMORE, DeAndre Hopkins,” posted the Ravens’ official social media account. “We have agreed to terms on a contract with WR DeAndre Hopkins.”
Hopkins agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $6 million.
Hopkins was traded to the Chiefs during the 2024 season after beginning the year with the Tennessee Titans. He capped off the season with five touchdowns and 610 yards on 56 receptions.
While he’s on the latter half of his NFL career, Hopkins brings incredible experience to the wide receiver room. Throughout his 12-year NFL career, Hopkins has been named a three-time All-Pro and a five-time Pro Bowler.
The Ravens finished the season with a 13-6 record, including a playoff victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers and a postseason loss to the Buffalo Bills.
