Personally I saw Watkins as his prototype. Or Aiyuk. But others saw Hopkins and that's not unreasonable given his frame, play style and body control.
So yeah, if we have the fully formed version of Rice back on the roster in Hopkins, we just lament what the injury means personally for Rice but it's time to move along.
Because this version of Hopkins appears to be better than what we saw from Rice. I wouldn't have believed that for a second but man, D-Hop looks really good out there.
