Amari Cooper News
Thursday, September 4, 2:14 PM
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper has informed the team that he intends to retire ahead of Week 1, citing a lack of desire to continue playing. Cooper, who joined the Raiders this offseason in hopes of competing for a starting role, was listed behind rookie Dont'e Thornton Jr. on the initial depth chart. The five-time Pro Bowler spent last season with the Browns and Bills, starting 10 of 14 games while recording 44 catches for 547 yards and four touchdowns. Cooper leaves the NFL after a decorated career, finishing with over 10,000 receiving yards and 64 touchdowns across stops with the Raiders, Cowboys, Browns, and Bills. His departure opens additional opportunities for Thornton and fellow rookie Jack Bech to carve out meaningful roles in the Raiders' passing game this season.

Puka Nacua News
Wednesday, April 1, 7:04 PM
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua has checked into a rehab facility. Per the star wide receiver's attorney, Levi McCathern, he has been in rehab for a "substantial period" before previous allegations of assault, and "he's scheduled to be there for a while longer." Earlier in the offseason, Nacua was accused of biting a woman in Los Angeles and had charges pressed against him. In these charges, the victim claimed Nacua made serious, vulgar, antisemitic remarks before biting her forcefully several times. While the wideout has denied all accusations regarding this incident, he is seeking additional help and support at this facility. Managers should continue to monitor this situation in the offseason, as a court hearing regarding this incident is scheduled for April 14.
