Former Tennessee Titans WR DeAndre Hopkins will play in Super Bowl 59 with Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs against the Philadelphia Eagles.

DeAndre Hopkins has accomplished plenty of individual success during his 12-year career. A Super Bowl appearance has evaded him until now.

Of course, Sanders' high opinion of Hopkins is a big deal because, in his 17-year career as a cornerback, he faced some of the greats, like Jerry Rice, Michael Irvin, and Andre Reed. Sanders even has some of his own experience playing wide receiver at the NFL level, accumulating 60 receptions, 784 yards and three touchdowns.

After 12 years in the NFL, DeAndre Hopkins is finally headed to his first Super Bowl after the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Buffalo Bills 32-29 in the AFC championship on Sunday night.

Many played big roles in the last Super Bowl meeting. Hurts rushed for three TDs and threw a 45-yard scoring strike to Brown, while Mahomes threw three TD passes, including one to Kelce, Nick Bolton returned a fumble for a touchdown and Harrison Butker kicked the game-winning field goal with 8 seconds left.

Kansas City's quest to become the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowls is a go. The Philadelphia Eagles are the last team standing that could stop them.
