DeAndre Hopkins has ingrained himself into the Kansas City Chiefs offense, as evidenced by his two-touchdown performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/a> on Monday Night Football in Week 9. He has not forgotten who he is or turned his back on where he\u2019s come from, though.<\/p>\n

One of Hopkins\u2019 touchdown celebrations raised eyebrows, coming from the movie \u201cRemember the Titans.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Chiefs, of course, acquired Hopkins<\/a> from the Tennessee Titans<\/a>, who have struggled to a 2-6 record this season. Hopkins took to social media to clear the air that he was not taking a shot at his former team.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a shout to Tennessee<\/a>,\u201d Hopkins posted on X on November 5. \u201cIf u know me u know it\u2019s nothing but love for Nashville. [Titans general manager Ran Carthon] and his crew are like family. Without them, I wouldn\u2019t be here.\u201d<\/p>\n
