From the article

Cooper played 38 snaps and ran 23 routes on Sunday. Mitchell played 26 snaps and ran 18 routes. Mitchell was returning from a finger injury that had kept him out of action since Week 2, so it's possible the Jets were working him back into things slowly. But Cooper played ahead of Mitchell in two-receiver sets on Sunday, and there's a good chance it will remain that way.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Cooper has surpassed Mitchell as Jets' No. 2 receiver with snap/route advantage.

Cooper has overtaken Adonai Mitchell as the Jets' No. 2 receiver; in Week 7, Cooper played 38 snaps and ran 23 routes compared to Mitchell's 26 snaps and 18 routes. Cooper played ahead of Mitchell in two-receiver sets, and the source notes "there's a good chance it will remain that way," even accounting for Mitchell's gradual return from a finger injury. The 30th overall pick in the 2026 draft, Cooper is unlikely to overtake Garrett Wilson as the team's target leader but has solidified a secondary role.
