DeAndre Hopkins to Eagles? Wide receiver ranks Jalen Hurts as QB he'd want to play with

It would be a Philadelphia Eagles fan's dream – a receiving corps that includes DeAndre Hopkins.

Apparently, it's something Hopkins has thought about.

While appearing on the “I AM ATHLETE” podcast Monday, Hopkins said he desires stability in upper management and wants to play with a quarterback who loves the game.

“What I want is stable management upstairs. I think that’s something I haven’t really had the past couple years of my career coming from Houston and then to Arizona. I’ve been through three or four GMs in my career, so a stable management. A QB who loves the game, a QB who brings everybody on board with him and pushes not just himself but everybody around him," Hopkins explained. "And a great defense. A great defense wins championships.”

It sure sounds like the Eagles check off all of those boxes. Of course, Hopkins actually naming Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts as on of those quarterbacks would be a good indicator as well. But wait, he did.

Before you go out and buy a new Eagles jersey, Hopkins reaffirmed his commitment to the Arizona Cardinals earlier this month on social media.

“I see everybody telling me to stay. Who said I want to go? Who said I wanted to leave? I’m out here working, baby,” Hopkins said via an Instagram Story posted on his account with a Phoenix location tag.

And, the Eagles already have AJ Brown, DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert for Hurts to throw to, which helped get them to the Super Bowl last season.

Still, it's fun to dream.
