Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper (shoulder) was listed as a full practice participant on Friday's injury report and appears to be good to go for Sunday's game against the Lions. Cooper saw his snap count decrease from a career-high 26 down to 11 between his last two games, and once again failed to get any targets in his most recent showing against the Packers. Philly has not turned to their first-year undrafted rookie yet and has plenty of preferred weapons in front of him. Cooper is still best left off of rosters until he proves to have any worth in fantasy.

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper saw his highest usage of his career so far and his first playing time since Week 3 in Philly's last game against the Giants. When Philly hosted New York, Cooper played 26 snaps, being on the field for 44.1% of offensive plays. His previous highest was 12 snaps on 20% of plays back in Week 2. Cooper was also close to having the first target of his career on a third quarter pass, but the play was negated by a pass interference, stopping him from recording his first stat. Even with A.J. Brown missing the contest, Cooper was unable to get involved. He's still unworthy of a bench spot on fantasy teams.

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper (shoulder) is active for Sunday's contest against the New York Giants. Cooper has been sidelined since suffering this shoulder injury in Week 3 during their contest against the Rams. The undrafted rookie out of Tarleton State has yet to catch a pass in his debut campaign, but could be in store for a larger role this afternoon with top wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) inactive. During the first three games, Cooper logged just 20 total snaps, with the majority of them coming in Week 2. He should not be targeted in any DFS competitions this afternoon, given his minimal role in the offense.

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper (shoulder) is listed as questionable going into the weekend after being on injured reserve for the last four games. It could be perfect timing for Cooper, as star receiver A.J. Brown will not play Sunday due to a hamstring injury. He has played just 20 snaps in the three games he was healthy for, so expectations should be set pretty low, especially coming off of an injury. He might get some more opportunities, but Cooper is too much of a long shot to be in fantasy lineups in Week 8, even if he's able to play.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Darius Cooper did not record any stats in a 33-26 win over the Los Angeles Rams. Cooper also saw a decrease in snaps, being on the field for only six offensive plays in Week 3 after playing 12 the previous game. The undrafted rookie will have to wait another week before hopefully making his first catch of the season. Cooper is still not an option for fantasy lineups as he lines up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Sunday.

Eagles rookie wideout Darius Cooper failed to achieve any targets once again in Philadelphia's Week 2 game against the Chiefs. However, Cooper did manage to see an increase in snaps, appearing in 12 offensive plays against Kansas City compared to the two he played versus the Cowboys. That could also be chalked up to the absence of starting tight end Dallas Goedert. Until he begins seeing any sort of consistent playing time, Cooper continues to be unreliable in fantasy.

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper failed to get any targets in the opening game of the season against the Cowboys. While Cooper did have a solid preseason showing against the Bengals, he was bound to struggle for looks in the regular season with the amount of talent surrounding him. He is currently listed as the fifth wideout on the Philly depth chart and was on the field for only two offensive snaps in Week 1. In an upcoming faceoff against the Chiefs, this undrafted rookie will likely have a similar workload. Cooper isn't worth looking at in fantasy for Week 2.
