Nate Burleson: Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins has best hands in the NFL

Houston Texans receiver DeAndre Hopkins was recently recognized as having the best hands for a wideout in the NFL.

According to Nate Burleson of NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football,” the former Minnesota Vikings, Seattle Seahawks, and Detroit Lions receiver presented his top-5 for best hands in the league and placed the Texans’ All-Pro atop the list.

What helps Hopkins’ case is the fact he did not record a single drop in 2018 as he tied a franchise record for single-season catches with 115. The former Clemson Tiger also produced 1,572 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns for Houston.

With Hopkins having a credible field general in Pro Bowler Deshaun Watson, one can only presume that the receiver will have more opportunities to showcase his talent and cement his offseason placement as the best receiver in the NFL.
