Kansas City Chiefs traded for DeAndre Hopkins, who will wear Kobe Bryant's jersey number 8.

DeAndre Hopkins, the Kansas City Chiefs' newly traded wide receiver, will wear the number 8 jersey to honor NBA legend Kobe Bryant. The Chiefs acquired him from the Tennessee Titans for a conditional draft pick. Previously wearing number 10, which is taken by a teammate, Hopkins opted for 8, Bryant's first Lakers number. At 32 and a five-time Pro Bowler, he aims to enhance the Chiefs' offense as they prepare for their upcoming game against the Raiders.
