Cooper Jr. returns from injury with 103 yards, 6 catches; Smith impressed with playmaking.

Rookie WR Omar Cooper Jr. returned from a high ankle sprain sustained in Week 1 and immediately made an impact, leading all Jets players with 103 receiving yards on 6-of-7 targets in his first game back, including a 48-yard touchdown reception. Despite playing less than two full games, QB Geno Smith praised his playmaking ability and toughness, saying 'He's a guy who finds ways to make catches. The tough catches -- he makes them look easy.' Cooper was selected 30th overall in the 2026 NFL Draft and appears to be establishing himself as a reliable target for Smith.
