DeAndre Hopkins Throws Shade at Cardinals
ARIZONA — Professional football player or not, it’s human nature to wonder if the grass is actually greener elsewhere.
In his own words, former Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins believes that to be the case with the Tennessee Titans as year two with the organization approaches:
“I love Tennessee. I love what Miss Amy (Adams Strunk, the Titans owner) is doing,” Hopkins told The Tennessean’s Nick Gray. “I think this is the happiest I’ve been in any organization, so I’ll just let that speak for itself.”
Hopkins was released by the Cardinals last summer after months of trade speculation with the Cardinals. New general manager Monti Ossenfort made the decision to cut Hopkins and wipe the slate clean, allowing the former Houston Texans star to hit the open market while getting his salary completely off the books in 2024 by absorbing all of the $22.6 million cap hit last season.
Hopkins visited with a handful of Super Bowl contenders before inking a two-year, $26 million deal with the Titans before the start of last season. He caught 75 passes for 1,057 yards and seven touchdowns.
Hopkins’ tenure in the desert could be viewed in a few different lights. On one hand, the Cardinals did get strong production out of their star wideout with some exciting memories attached. Arizona needed another prominent pass catcher for Kyler Murray, and more times than not, Hopkins rose to the occasion.
On the other, Hopkins played just 19 games his final two years in the desert and was notably suspended for PED use, something he wholeheartedly denied both during and after the suspension.
There were also reports he sat out the final two games of the 2022 despite being healthy. In the months leading up to his release, Hopkins was extremely impartial on wanting to remain in Arizona in podcasts and on social media.
Not all the shade was directed at Arizona, however. The Texans traded him for scraps ahead of the 2020 season, a move that’s still discussed in low light to this day.
When asked about Hopkins’ contract, Titans GM Ran Carthon offered this:
“He’s one of the guys that’s on our team, and we’ve talked about a number of guys on the team to have those conversations,” Carthon said.
“One thing I appreciate about D Hop is, if you guys have gotten to know him, D Hop is straight forward and D Hop and I, we can have some straightforward conversations, and we have and we do. And so D Hop knows how we feel about him, and I think that’s a big thing, especially for a veteran at this stage of his career.
“I think the way he’s shown up here, the way he’s bought into a new staff, kind of shows how he feels about us and what we have going.”
If Hopkins is as happy as he says he is, he could very well stick around with the Titans.

PRESCOTT, AZ (AZFamily) — Beautiful Prescott, Arizona, is home to the “World’s Oldest Rodeo,” and on this Field Trip Friday, we’re getting a look at what to expect when it opens next week!
Scott Pasmore and Gibby Parra went to check out the Prescott Frontier Days event that attracts thousands every year. There’s a wild horse race, barrel racing and bull riding — and that’s just the beginning of what you can see!
Rodeo Royalty
No rodeo is complete without Rodeo Royalty, or experienced horsewomen who help keep the sport alive. Scott and Gibby introduce you to the rodeo queens of the “World’s Oldest Rodeo.”
Anna Butler was named the 2026 Prescott Frontier Days rodeo queen, Ava Brooks was named the 2027 rodeo queen, and Ellie Weeks was named the 2027 junior queen.
Granite Mountain Distillery
Granite Mountain Distillery opened in 2025 and welcomes customers on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The distillery has a limited edition whiskey bottle made specially for the “World’s Oldest Rodeo.”
Master Distiller Chris Currie said the quality barrels that the distillery uses allow for the whiskey to be of such high quality.
There were only 1,888 rodeo edition bottles made. Each bottle has its own unique number to authenticity.
Red White and Brew
No one is more excited about the rodeo returning to town than all the local businesses in Prescott.
Summer is one of their busiest times of the year. It’s when many Arizona families head north from the Valley to escape the heat or to attend one of the many summer events in the historic town.
Scott and Gibby stopped by Red White and Brew to see what they’re cooking up this time of year.
“Frontier Days in Prescott is huge,” said Jennifer Collinge, general manager at Red White and Brew in Prescott. “It draws people in from all over the state, all over the country, come and visit us. We have a giant Fourth of July parade that is, I think, one of the biggest in the state. It’s just a week-long of festivities and fun; you don’t have to be involved in rodeo to enjoy it.”
If you want to go the extra mile, 20% of all sales made at Red White and Brew on Tuesday, June 30, will be donated to the Eric Marsh Foundation for Wildland Firefighters.
Whiskey River Tavern
Scott and Gibby spoke with former Prescott Mayor Greg Mengarelli about the exciting times ahead for the city.
“It’s going to be a great celebration,” Mengarelli said. “We’re already very patriotic at the rodeo, but America 250 is just up another level. It’s going to be an awesome celebration, and I hope everybody comes up to see us at the rodeo and the parade.”
He said Frontier Days is sold out, as has been the case over the past several years, and 17 foreign countries will be represented.
