That's the attitude some Chiefs fans are sure to have Wednesday after news broke early in the morning about an expected trade that would send three-time All-Pro receiver DeAndre Hopkins to KC.
Hopkins, 32, has 15 receptions for 173 yards and a touchdown this season with the Tennessee Titans. A year ago, he caught 75 passes and had 1,057 receiving yards with seven touchdown receptions.
The 2023 season was Hopkins' first with the Titans, who signed him as a free agent in July 2023. He previously played for the Cardinals and Houston Texans. Tennessee's deal with Hopkins was for $26 million over two seasons, CBS Sports reported at the time.
The NFL Players Association's public salary-cap report shows the Chiefs have $4,311,230 in cap space as of Wednesday morning.
Spotrac co-founder Michael Ginnitti shared details of Hopkins' contract on X.
"DeAndre Hopkins' has $8M remaining on the final year of his contract," Ginnitti wrote. "It's largely expected that the #Titans will be retaining a portion of salary per this trade with the #Chiefs, who currently hold around $4M of cap space in 2024."
The NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said on "Good Morning Football" that the Chiefs and Titans began talking about a trade around midnight on Wednesday. Things progressed quickly.
"The two sides are going back and forth now on salary," Rapoport said. "My understanding is the Titans are going to pay some of DeAndre Hopkins' base salary for this year just to make it easier for the Chiefs to withstand the salary. But this trade is expected to happen."
Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones was a tad excited about the expected acquisition of Hopkins. Here is what he wrote on X:
