Cooper logged 4 ST tackles in Week 1; earning offensive opportunities through effort.

Cooper, a wide receiver, finished sixth on the Eagles in tackles on Sunday with four while playing special teams. The source notes this is an impressive number—special teams coordinator Michael Clay noted that Jeremiah Trotter Jr. led the Eagles in this category last season with 18, so Cooper generated 22.22% of last year's high mark in just one game. Between shining in offseason practices and playing hard on special teams, Cooper is earning the right to play on offense, and it would be nice to see the Eagles reward him with more offensive snaps.
