DeAndre ‘Nuk’ Hopkins was one of the most reliable and best play-making receivers of the Dabo Swinney era. Some may argue he was the top.

Hopkins caught 206 passes for 3,020 yards and 27 touchdowns during his career. That yardage number is good enough for second all-time in school history and he’s tied for first in career receiving touchdowns.

During his final season (junior year), Nuk caught 82 passes for 1,405 yards and 18 touchdowns. He will forever be remembered for his final game when he posted 13 receptions for 191 yards and two touchdowns, including the catch on 4th and 16 that kept the Tigers’ game-winning drive alive.
