Who Should I Start? Brandin Cooks or Amari Cooper

Thursday, September 21, 3:12 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks (knee) is good to go for his second straight day of practice on Thursday after missing the Week 2 win over the New York Jets with an MCL injury. Cooks was officially listed as limited on Wednesday and will likely be given the same designation on Thursday. In the 40-0 blowout win over the New York Giants in Week 1, Cooks wasn't really needed and finished with just two catches on four targets for 22 yards. With him absence in Week 2, Michael Gallup played the same number of offensive snaps as CeeDee Lamb but caught just one pass for three yards. For what it's worth, Cooks expects to return this Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals in another game that probably won't require the Cowboys to air it out much.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper (groin, shoulder) was able to practice in a limited fashion on Thursday after being held out of Wednesday's session. Cooper was questionable to play on Monday night in the loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers due to a groin issue, but he suited up anyway and played well catching seven of 10 targets for 90 yards while playing over 70 percent of the offensive snaps. He may be a little beat up early in the year, but he should be able to suit up this Sunday at home against the Tennessee Titans, where he should continue to serve as quarterback Deshaun Watson's go-to target. The Browns could throw the ball a bit more moving forward, too, now that Nick Chubb (knee) is done for the season.
