STACKED’s take
Cooper averages 19.1 yards per target; likely Jets' No. 2 receiver after two 100-yard games.
Cooper has emerged as a potential budding star for the Jets after returning from a high-ankle sprain sustained in Week 1. In his first two games back (Weeks 6-7), he topped 100 yards and scored a touchdown in each contest: 6-103-1 on 7 targets vs. Patriots in Week 6, then 5-115-1 on 5 targets vs. Dolphins in Week 7. Despite only 13 NFL targets, he is averaging an outrageous 19.1 yards per target. The 30th overall pick in the 2026 draft, Cooper has likely already overtaken Adonai Mitchell as the Jets' No. 2 receiver, playing 38 snaps and running 23 routes in Week 7 compared to Mitchell's 26 snaps and 18 routes. Cooper played ahead of Mitchell in two-receiver sets.
