Cooper's 7 targets and 2 TDs show Hurts' trust; elite blocker and special teams contributor.

Cooper led the Eagles with 7 targets and scored 2 touchdowns, demonstrating Hurts' trust and his value as a pass-catcher and blocker. Three of his five receptions this season have resulted in touchdowns. He made a great effort to snag one TD out of the air to prevent an interception, then got wide open in the back of the end zone for his second score. Cooper is the Eagles' best blocking receiver and among NFL leaders in special teams tackles, yet saw zero targets in Week 1 and zero targets in Week 3 despite playing the fifth-most snaps of any Eagles receiver.
