Hopkins is young and most importantly to the Bengals a low price tag guard. Makes sense to get him some work, and it never hurts to have Smith ready to slide out to tackle in case of injury or someone being terrible again.
Seems like Hopkins name was popping up a lot prior to and even at the start of camp, maybe the guy has just outworked Andre and now they are looking at Smith as more of a back-up G/T swingman.
