2. DeAndre Hopkins, Tennessee Titans

Much like the Jaguars, the Tennessee Titans could be looking to move some players following an uninspiring 1-3 start to the season. One of the players who could draw a ton of interest is none other than five-time Pro Bowl WR DeAndre Hopkins. 

Hopkins hasn't had the best quarterbacks to play with since signing a two-year contract with the Titans in 2022. Still, that hasn't stopped him from finding a way to produce. The former 2013 first-rounder has managed to tally 85 receptions for 1,178 yards and eight TDs across 21 games. 

Even if he's no longer in his prime, those are still solid WR2 numbers. 

Hopkins also made it clear last year that he wanted to be a Cowboy before signing with the Titans. The Cowboys reportedly didn't have interest in him at the time considering that they had already acquired Cooks earlier that offseason, however, things may have changed given the franchise's current situation. 

A reliable pass-catcher with over 12,000 yards and 79 TDs under his belt, Hopkins would easily be one of the best wideouts to play with Prescott. He's also on an expiring contract with a $18.3 million cap hit that lowers by the week, meaning the Cowboys don't have to commit long-term if they acquire him. 

It's certainly an option worth exploring.
