Amari Cooper Informs Raiders of Retirement

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.

Rams Will "Explore All Avenues" to Improve WR Room

Monday, November 9, 1:10 PM

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay had previously ruled out a trade-deadline move or adding a new receiver but said on Monday that the Rams will "explore all avenues" as they try to figure out how to move forward after Puka Nacua's (knee, toe) injuries, according to Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News. Nacua is likely to land on Injured Reserve, which will require him to miss at least four games, after spraining his MCL/PCL and suffering a turf-toe injury in Sunday's Week 9 win over the Washington Commanders. Veteran Davante Adams (hamstring) is also out for the foreseeable future, so the Rams are now without their two star pass-catchers as they head into a Week 10 matchup against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals. If the Rams cannot swing a trade for a receiver by Tuesday's Nov. 10 deadline, Konata Mumpfield, Tutu Atwell, and Jordan Whittington would be their top three receivers. Regardless of whether the Rams swing a trade for a new WR, tight ends Tyler Higbee and Colby Parkinson will also become much more valuable streaming options at TE in fantasy going forward with both Nacua and Adams sidelined.
