The Tennessee Titans need to bounce back from a tough loss in Week 1.
Their players mean business, and we can tell that by taking a look at DeAndre Hopkins’ outfit.
The former Houston Texans star arrived at MetLife Stadium wearing a shiny black trench coat, and he looked like a man on a mission.

Notably, Will Levis and Brian Callahan could use some more production from him in Week 1.
He was only targeted once and logged one catch for eight yards in their season-opening loss to the Chicago Bears.
Of course, that wasn’t his fault, as the Bear’s defense was all over Levis and kept him running for his life from start to finish.
More than that, Hopkins is also dealing with a delicate knee injury.
He wasn’t even supposed to play in the season opener, but he managed to play through it, although in a limited role.
Now, the former Arizona Cardinals wideout is expected to take on a larger role vs. the New York Jets.
Both teams will look to bounce back from a tough season opener, and things won’t get any easier for Hopkins and the Titans on Sunday.
The Jets’ once-great defense was nowhere to be found vs. the San Francisco 49ers, so they will most likely look to make a statement at home and against a first-year coach and a rookie quarterback.
Still, we all know what Hopkins is capable of when he’s at his best, even if we haven’t seen him like that in quite a while now.
