2024 Fantasy Outlook
Known for his short-range accuracy more so than leg strength, Hopkins spent six and a half seasons with the Commanders and then parts of two seasons with the Chargers before landing in Cleveland last year for what ended up being his best effort yet. Having made just 15 of 30 attempts from 50-plus yards prior to 2023, he surprisingly went 8 of 8 from long distance last season and 33 of 36 on all field-goal attempts. Hopkins attempted just 26 PATs, making 24, yet finished 11th among kickers in fantasy points (and second in points per game - 9.3). A hamstring injury cost him the final two games of the regular season plus a playoff loss to Houston, and there's now some question about his future with the team, strange as that may seem. The Browns can free up $3.54 million in cap space if Hopkins is traded/released, and they're carrying two other kickers -- Cade York and Lucas Havrisik -- on the offseason roster. That said, Hopkins' 85.8 percent career FG rate and 2023 success should allow him to find another job if things don't work out in Cleveland. Read Past Outlooks
Bad day at office
Hopkins missed both field-goal attempts and did not attempt an extra-point kick following the Browns' two touchdowns in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints in Week 11.
ANALYSIS
Hopkins had a day to forget, missing two kicks on consecutive drives in the first half when the game was still close. Hopkins actually missed three kicks -- a 32-yarder that was wide left -- but a Saints penalty gave the Browns another life, only to have it wasted, as Hopkins missed from 27 yards three plays later. He never had a chance to kick an extra point, as Cleveland opted to go for two points following both touchdowns. The Browns may have buyer's remorse after handing Hopkins a three-year deal in the offseason. The kicker has been successful on just 70 percent (14-of-20) of his field-goal kicks and missed two extra-point tries in 2024.

Hopkins was outperformed by his injury replacement, Cameron Dicker, last year with the Chargers, and then found himself unable to unseat the newcomer this summer. The Chargers eventually traded Hopkins to Cleveland, where he'll replace disappointing 2022 fourth-round pick Cade York. While he doesn't offer the range of many other modern kickers, Hopkins has always been at least average converting shorter kicks and PATs.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Inks extension
Hopkins signed a three-year extension Monday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Hopkins spent time with the Commanders and Chargers between the 2021 and 2022 seasons, appearing in 22 out of a possible 34 regular-season games during that span and posting a solid 88.6 percent success rate on field-goal attempts. The veteran then settled in after being traded from the Chargers to the Browns just before the start of last season, making a career-best 91.7 percent of his field-goal tries, including a career-long 58-yard field goal. The impressive efficiency earned the veteran kicker a three-year, $15.9 million extension, giving him a substantial raise over the $2.88 million he was slated to earn in 2024 under his prior deal.
