  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Makes both FGA

    Hopkins converted both of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 29-12 loss to the Broncos in Week 12.

    Hopkins was perfect for a third consecutive week, calmly finishing off drives with kicks from 36 and 24 yards. Sunday's game was his seventh straight with multiple field goals made. The Browns offense has been spotty all season, particularly when backup quarterbacks are on the field, resulting in a league-leading 31 attempts in 2023. As such, Hopkins remains a legit fantasy kicker and is tied for the lead in placekicker points with 99.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: No flaws in win

    Hopkins converted two of two field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in Sunday's 13-10 win over Pittsburgh in Week 11.

    The Browns have been getting by without starting quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) with elite defense and Hopkins' leg. That same script played out once again Sunday. Hopkins calmly drilled a 34-yard field goal with two ticks left on the clock to secure Cleveland's seventh win, the second straight week he's delivered the game-winning score in the final moments. Hopkins leads the NFL with 29 field-goal attempts and 26 makes. He's benefitted from the Browns relying on backup quarterbacks that are less proficient at finishing drives than Watson, who is done for the season.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Overcomes missed XP

    Hopkins successfully converted four of four field-goal attempts and one of two extra-point kicks in Sundays' 33-31 win over the Ravens in Week 10.

    As the Browns rallied in the second half, Hopkins missed extra-point loomed large, as the Ravens clung to a one-point lead midway through the fourth quarter. However, the placekicker made up for the miss with a 40-yard field goal as time expired to complete the comeback win. The missed extra point, his first of the season, could have hurt, but Hopkins has been vital to the team's success in 2023. Sunday's effort was the third time in the last five weeks he's made at least four field goals -- Cleveland's won all three of this game. For the season, Hopkins is 24-of-27 on field goals, including a perfect 7-of-7 from beyond the 50, and leads all kickers with 86 points.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Steady despite missed FGA

    Hopkins successfully converted two of three field-goal attempts and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 27-0 win over the Cardinals in Week 9.

    Hopkins missed his third FGA of the season -- all three have been wide left and in the 40-to-49-yard range -- but it had no impact on the final result, as Cleveland's defense made sure Arizona didn't get a whiff of the end zone. The steady Hopkins is 20-for-23 on field goals and has made all 13 extra-point kicks.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Perfect in loss

    Hopkins converted two of two field-goal attempts and both extra-point kicks in Sunday's 24-20 loss to Seattle in Week 8.

    Hopkins wasn't tested too hard, drilling two second-half attempts from 25 and 27 yards. Those kicks looked to be the difference, but quarterback PJ Walker's late interception gave the Seahawks possession near midfield, and the Browns' stout defense couldn't prevent the game-winning touchdown. Hopkins has converted 18 of 20 field-goal attempts (10 of 11 the last three games) and is tied for sixth in kicker scoring with 64 points.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Comes up big again

    Hopkins converted all four field-goal attempts and three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 39-38 win over the Colts in Week 7.

    Hopkins has been a key performer during Cleveland's two-game winning streak, accounting for a combined 28 points in victories over San Francisco and Indianapolis. On Sunday, he nailed kicks from 44, 54, 54 and a career-long 58 yards. He also set an NFL record with five consecutive games in which he's made a field goal from beyond the 50.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Plays significant role in upset win

    Hopkins converted four of five field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in Sunday's 19-17 win over San Francisco in Week 6.

    The Browns, operating without starting quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder), were expected to be outplayed by an undefeated 49ers team, but the defense and Hopkins' leg scored the upset victory. His 13 points were a season high and necessary on a day when the offense was led by former practice squad quarterback PJ Walker. It wasn't an easy day to kick in Cleveland -- San Francisco's Jake Moody missed two kicks -- but Hopkins connected from 42, 46, 50 and 29 yards while missing left from 47. One wonders what might have been had Cleveland stuck with the inconsistent Cade York. Hopkins is 12-for-14 on field-goals attempts and perfect on all five extra-point kicks.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Nails lone FGA

    Hopkins converted his lone field-goal attempt in Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Ravens in Week 4.

    Hopkins drilled a 53-yarder in the first quarter for the Browns' only points in a disappointing loss. He's converted all three attempts from beyond the 50 and has been successful on eight of nine field-goal attempts overall through four weeks. Cleveland is off Week 5.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Perfect in win

    Hopkins converted both field-goal attempts and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 27-3 win over the Titans in Week 3.

    Hopkins was successful from 48 and 52 yards in the first half, helping the Browns build a 13-3 halftime lead. He's made both of his kicks from beyond the 50 this season and provided much-needed calm to the kicking game. Hopkins has converted seven of eight FGAs, with the lone miss coming from 43 yards last week.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Misses first kick

    Hopkins converted two of three field-goal attempts and was not needed for extra-point kicks in Monday's 26-22 loss to the Steelers.

    Hopkins' makes from 43 and 55 yards bookended a 43-yarder that went wide left. He lined up for an extra-point kick, but Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski opted for a two-point conversation after a Pittsburgh penalty. The Browns went for two points following their other touchdown. Hopkins has made five of six FGA and his lone XPA following the team's wild ride with Cade York.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Consistent in opener

    Hopkins converted three of three field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in Sunday's 24-3 win over the Bengals in Week 1.

    For one week, the Browns and all those interested in the team's fate could breathe a sigh of relief. After Cade York's uneven finish to 2022 and troubling signs exhibited during the preseason, a team with playoff ambitions brought in Hopkins to stabilize its kicking game. He did so opening week.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Traded to Cleveland

    The Browns traded a 2025 seventh-round draft pick to the Chargers in exchange for Hopkins on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Hopkins had been competing with Cameron Dicker for the Chargers' kicking job, but the 32-year-old now is headed to Cleveland, where he's slated to take over for Cade York, who the Browns plan to cut, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Hopkins is slated to debut with his new team Sunday, Sept. 10 against the Bengals.

  • Chargers' Dustin Hopkins: Back at practice

    Hopkins (undisclosed) returned to practice Thursday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

    Hopkins, who had been dealing with an unspecified injury, thus kicked for the first time since the second day of camp (July 27). Now that Hopkins is back on the field, the 32-year-old is slated to compete with Cameron Dicker for the Chargers' Week 1 placekicking assignment. The two are listed as co-starters on the team's posted unofficial depth chart, but considering that Dicker has made 58 of 64 kicks (90.6 percent) of his attempts during camp thus far, Hopkins will need to look sharp going forward in order to make his case to claim a roster spot.

  • Chargers' Dustin Hopkins: Dealing with injury

    Hopkins (undisclosed) did not practice Wednesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Hopkins also didn't practice Sunday, and it's unclear if he took the field anytime between then and now. The 32-year-old is currently in competition with Cameron Dicker for the team's kicking duties, so any continued missed time could be detrimental to his chances.
