Cooper has topped 100 yards and scored a touchdown in each of his first two games back from the high-ankle sprain he sustained in Week 1. The former Indiana University star had 6-103-1 on seven targets against the Patriots in Week 6, then had 5-115-1 on five targets against the Dolphins in Week 7. Although he's only seen 13 NFL targets, Cooper is averaging an outrageous 19.1 yards per target.

Cooper averaging 19.1 yards per target; likely Jets' No. 2 WR going forward.

Cooper has topped 100 yards and scored a touchdown in each of his first two games back from a high-ankle sprain sustained in Week 1. He posted 6-103-1 on seven targets against the Patriots in Week 6, then 5-115-1 on five targets against the Dolphins in Week 7. Despite only 13 NFL targets, Cooper is averaging an outrageous 19.1 yards per target. The 30th overall pick in the 2026 draft, Cooper is likely to overtake Adonai Mitchell as the Jets' No. 2 receiver; he already played ahead of Mitchell in two-receiver sets in Week 7 (38 snaps, 23 routes vs. Mitchell's 26 snaps, 18 routes).
