STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Cooper's back-to-back 100-yard games and elite man-coverage metrics signal breakout potential.

Cooper's arrow is pointing up after recording back-to-back 100-yard, one-touchdown games despite a slow training camp start and Week 1 high ankle sprain. He ranks second among NFL rookies with 121 receiving yards against man coverage and leads all NFL pass catchers (minimum 45 routes) with a 12.2 percent explosive catch rate per NexGenStats. Cooper has been especially dangerous against man coverage and avoided the spiral that derails many rookie seasons by staying engaged in the playbook during recovery.
