Wesley Carl Hopkins (September 26, 1961 – September 28, 2018) was an American professional football player who played as a safety for the Philadelphia Eagles during his entire 11-year National Football League career from 1983 through 1993.
A walk-on for the Southern Methodist football team, he was first noticed after he made a ferocious tackle on teammate and future Pro Football Hall of Fame running back Eric Dickerson during a team practice.
Hopkins was named to the All-Conference selection in each of his last two seasons at SMU.
