TEN WR #10 TAR16REC14REC YDs151REC TD0FL0Wide receivers that change teams typically made an impact in their first game with their new club, but it was hard to find wideouts over the course of NFL history that had a better debut than Hopkins. The Cardinals wideout set the NFL record for most catches in his first game with his new team with 14, but that was just the beginning of his historic performance in Week 1.In this week's edition of "By The Numbers," we'll take a dive into where Hopkins' Week 1 performance ranks in NFL history among receivers that joined a new team in the offseason and how the Cardinals wide receiver ranks all time after 111 career games.

If Hopkins keeps up that pace through 16 seasons and plays all 16 games each year, he'll be at 1,397 catches though his age 36 season -- which would be second all-time behind Jerry Rice (1,549). This just demonstrates how good Hopkins has been since he entered the league, one of the most reliable wideouts the game as ever seen.Now let's take a look at where Hopkins stacks up thought eight NFL seasons -- and keep in mind he just started year eight this past week.Most receiving yards through player's first eight seasonsJulio Jones (10,731)Torry Holt (10,675)Calvin Johnson (10,405)Jerry Rice (10,273)Randy Mo s (10,147)Hopkins is currently 15th on the all-time list even though he has played just one game into his eighth season.
