Exclusive: Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is making the most of the offseason with a new television project.
Hopkins, the five-time all-pro, has teamed up with Los Angeles Media Fund (Lamf), the production company behind Hulu’s Antoine Fuqu-directed documentary series Legacy, The True Story of the Los Angeles Lakers, to develop The Other Home Team.
The series will tell the stories of the inspiration, education and sacrifice made by the families of NFL players on their roads to success and he and his family will feature in the pilot episode.
