Report: DeAndre Hopkins in no rush to sign after productive Patriots visit
Free-agent wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is in no rush to sign with a team after completing his second club visit since the Arizona Cardinals released him, reports ESPN's Mike Reiss.
Hopkins' visit to the New England Patriots on Thursday "went well," a source told Jordan Schultz, theScore's NFL insider. Hopkins is considering waiting until training camp in July to make a final decision.

New England is making a push to sign the five-time Pro Bowler after a productive visit, according to The Athletic's Jeff Howe.
On Thursday, Hopkins posted an Instagram picture of himself and Patriots edge rusher Matt Judon, who's been actively recruiting him in recent weeks.

Patriots quarterback Mac Jones recently said the team would "love" to land Hopkins.
The receiver previously visited the Tennessee Titans.
The Cardinals released Hopkins in May after three seasons. The 31-year-old appeared in only 19 games in Arizona over the last two years. He caught 115 passes for 1,407 yards and six touchdowns in 16 games in 2020.
