Dustin Hopkins gets a team of the week nod

The Washington Redskins had a few standout performers in Week 15 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Most of the attention went to Terry McLaurin, who caught five passes for 130 yards and a score.

But don’t forget kicker Dustin Hopkins.

Pro Football Focus sure didn’t, naming Hopkins as the only Redskins player on the team of the week.

Interesting, though not unexpected for Hopkins, who hit on all two of his attempts on the day, the longest coming from 53 yards away.

There are plenty of problems in Washington but Hopkins hasn’t been one of those, hitting on 22 of his 27 attempts this year, missing on just one extra point and converting two of three attempts from 50-plus yards.
