Tennessee Titans veteran DeAndre Hopkins does not seem eager to join the growing list of Pro Bowl wide receivers changing addresses midseason.

On Tuesday, Davante Adams finally got dealt to the New York Jets after dominating the trade rumor mill for weeks. The Cleveland Browns traded five-time Pro Bowler Amari Cooper to the Buffalo Bills on the same day.

Ahead of the Titans’ Week 7 matchup against the Bills, Hopkins was asked about his name being involved in trade rumors of late.

“I’ve been playing for a long time,” Hopkins said, via the Titans’ official website . “My mind is very much set on Buffalo this week.

“I love my life. I love where I am. God put me where I need to be, and He always will. I play football.”

Hopkins added that he wasn’t even aware he was being mentioned in trade rumors.

The 32-year-old’s performance on the field has taken a step back over the last few years. Hopkins has 14 catches for 175 yards with just one touchdown through five games played this season. But part of his meager production could be due to quarterback Will Levis’ struggles in his sophomore campaign .

However, the three-time All-Pro appears to be doing just fine in Tennessee. If Hopkins’ social media activity is any indication , the man is happy to be enjoying his 12th NFL season.
