Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins will be studying more than just Tim Kelly's playbook this fall.

According to "The Tiger's" Associate Editor, Justin Robertson, Hopkins is headed back to school and officially re-enrolled in classes at Clemson University this week. 

Front Office Sports added that Hopkins will make $12 million this year, but that doesn't seem to be stopping him from thinking about his career post-NFL life. 

D-Hop, who played for the Tigers from 2010 to 2012 before entering the draft early, will be taking all of his classes online–with the exception of tests–as he works toward finishing his degree in parks, rec and tourism management. 

Hopkin's Injury Status vs. Chargers 

While the five-time Pro Bowler gets ready for classes to start up, he's also preparing for Tennessee's Week 2 game against the Los Angeles Chargers, though he has not practiced all week due to an ankle injury and is listed as questionable. 

"Just trying to get my body ready to go if I’m up Sunday," Hopkins said on Friday. "That’s kind of a day-to-day process. We shall see. I haven’t been here to make those decisions. I haven’t been in that scenario so I’m not sure how it goes. But I’ll be prepared if my number’s up."

Hopkins led the Titans' wideout room in Week 1 with seven receptions for 65 yards.

His presence will be vital come Sunday.
