Last week, Garrett Wilson dealt with Christian Gonzalez on 93.9% of his routes, which both limited Wilson's production and pushed target volume in Cooper's direction. Also, Adonai Mitchell wasn't active. Mitchell will be back this week.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Cooper's breakout was inflated by Wilson's coverage and Mitchell's absence; regression likely.

Cooper Jr. popped off last week as WR6 with 23.3% target share, 103 receiving yards (3.81 YPRR), one red zone target, one deep target, and 33.3% first-read share. However, Derek Brown adds important context: Garrett Wilson dealt with Christian Gonzalez on 93.9% of his routes last week, which limited Wilson's production and pushed target volume to Cooper. Additionally, Adonai Mitchell was inactive but will return this week, increasing target competition. Miami has been very good at defending the slot, allowing the seventh-fewest yards per target and tenth-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to slot receivers. Cooper is flex-viable but not expected to produce a massive stat line.
