Latest News

28 days ago

Fantasy Impact: It was mostly a lost season for Cooks as injuries caused him to miss seven games. He is set to hit free agency this offseason.

Expert Note

Last week, Cooks inherited CeeDee Lamb's high-volume role in the passing game with a 27.6% target share, a 52.9% air-yard share, and a 35% first-read share. He finished with 2.74 YPRR but only four receptions and 52 receiving yards. He should be considered a strong flex that will buoy between WR2/3 value this week, facing a pass defense that, since Week 12, has allowed the 14th-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.
