Dustin Hopkins Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

The Browns acquired K Dustin Hopkins from the Chargers and promptly released K Cade York. York missed eight FGs and two XPs last year and struggled this preseason, so the move doesn't come as a big surprise. Hopkins sports a career 84.8% FG conversion rate and is squarely on the fantasy radar kicking for what should be a strong Cleveland offense.

7:27pm EST 11/22/22

The Chargers placed K Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) on IR, knocking him out for at least another 4 games. K Cameron Dicker has made all 6 of his XPs and all 7 of his FG tries over the past 3 weeks.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Chiefs. Cameron Dicker will kick for Los Angeles again.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Friday but is listed as doubtful for Sunday night’s game vs. the Chiefs. It looks like Cameron Dicker will kick for Los Angeles again.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) is out for Sunday night’s game vs. the 49ers. Cameron Dicker will kick for Los Angeles for the 2nd straight week.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins is expected to miss 2-4 weeks with the hamstring injury he suffered in Monday night's win over the Broncos, HC Brandon Staley said. So the Chargers will go back to K Taylor Bertolet, who made 3 FGs and 3 XPs in place of Hopkins in Week 5.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins (right quad) isn't listed on the final Week 6 injury report. He was a full participant on Saturday and looks safe to use in fantasy lineups vs. the Broncos on Monday night.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins (right quad) is inactive for today’s game against the Browns. Taylor Bertolet will kick in his place.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins (right quad) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns. It's an injury to his kicking leg, so we'd try to find a replacement rather than trusting Hopkins even if active.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins was activated from the COVID list and will be available for Sunday's game vs. the Broncos.

Chargers K Dustin Hopkins has been placed on the COVID list. He joins K Tristan Vizcaino there, so we'll see what the Chargers do at kicker this week.

The Chargers released K Tristan Vizcaino and signed K Dustin Hopkins. It's surprising Vizcaino lasted this long considering he missed 5 XPs and 1 FG through 6 games. Hopkins was dumped by Washington last week after missing 2 XPs and 2 FGs in 6 games. But he sports a career 84.0% FG conversion rate and should bring more stability to the position for Los Angeles. Hopkins should also be a decent fantasy option in this high-scoring offense.

Washington released K Dustin Hopkins and signed K Chris Blewitt. Hopkins missed 2 XPs and 2 FGs over the first 6 games of this season. Blewitt has yet to attempt a regular-season kick and isn't a viable Week 7 fantasy option.

JP Finlay of NBC Sports reports that Washington has agreed to a new 1-year deal with K Dustin Hopkins, which will keep him from reaching unrestricted free agency. Hopkins saw his FG attempts and extra-point tries increase last year over the previous 2 seasons. His new contract keeps him worth targeting as 1 of your 3 kickers in FFPC best-ball drafts.

Washington will re-sign K Dustin Hopkins, according to NBC Sports' JP Finlay. Hopkins has been with the team since 2015, converting 84% of his FG attempts and 95% of his XPs. He finished 16th among Ks in fantasy points last year. Hopkins isn't a great fantasy option, but his job security makes him a fine pick in early drafts.

Washington K Dustin Hopkins (groin) is active for today's game against the Cowboys. There's risk to playing a kicker with a groin injury, but he's available if you planned to use him.

Washington K Dustin Hopkins is dealing with a groin injury and is uncertain for Sundays game against the Lions, HC Ron Rivera said. Washington would turn to K Kaare Vedvik if Hopkins can't play. It's a situation to stay away from in fantasy lineups.

The forecast for today's Redskins-Bills game calls for winds between 15 and 20 mph with gusts around 30 mph. It won't be as windy as it was last week, but this is still enough to give slight bumps down to the passing and kicking games. Hopefully you were already avoiding Washington's passing game (including Terry McLaurin) in rookie QB Dwayne Haskins' 1st start. QB Josh Allen and WR John Brown remain fine plays on the Buffalo side. We'd try not to use either K in this game.

Redskins K Dustin Hopkins (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Texans. We’ll see if Washington adds another K, but this is a situation to avoid in Week 11 fantasy lineups.

Redskins K Dustin Hopkins has missed the first 2 practices on the week with a groin injury. Washington has worked out multiple Ks this week but has yet to sign one. We'll keep an eye on the situation, but you should look elsewhere in Week 11 fantasy lineups.
