Today was a rare day where I did not write Cooper's name down in my notes, except for that he wasn't getting as much first team run with Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown, and Elijah Moore mostly ahead of him.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Cooper's great camp earning podium media access; role expansion possible.

Cooper has had a great camp and is getting post-practice media availability at the podium, as opposed to the off-camera 'mixed zone' area typically reserved for non-big name players, suggesting elevated status. However, he wasn't getting as much first-team run today with Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown, and Elijah Moore mostly ahead of him. Nick Sirianni grouped Cooper with Johnny Wilson as 'dirty work' role guys back in June, but when asked if Cooper has earned playing time on offense after his standout summer, the implication is that he may be earning more opportunities.
