Amari Cooper Catches His First Cowboys Touchdown on Monday
Amari Cooper caught five passes on Monday, gaining 58 yards and scoring his first touchdown in a Cowboys uniform. Cooper saw eight targets in his first game as a Cowboy, showing decent enough chemistry with quarterback Dak Prescott. He was clearly operating as the WR1 in the offense, but it just isn't a strong enough passing game to return consistent results. Cooper is certainly worth owning, but he'll have his ups and downs, as will this whole offensive unit.

Cowboys Could Reunite With Amari Cooper
Amari Cooper, a source told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram's Nick Harris. The Cowboys surprisingly didn't use any of their nine selections in last week's draft on a receiver, and ESPN's Todd Archer reported that the Cowboys had discussions with an AFC North team about trading for a receiver, but the two sides weren't able to get anything done before the draft. Other than Cooper, there are still intriguing free-agent options such as Keenan Allen and Nelson Agholor. Dallas traded a first-rounder for Cooper in 2018, and he had 292 catches for 3,893 yards and 27 touchdowns in 56 games with the team. The 30-year-old veteran would likely become Dallas' No. 2 wideout across from CeeDee Lamb if he were to return to the Cowboys.

Bills Interested In Reuniting With Amari Cooper
Amari Cooper's production and play with the team this season and are interested in re-signing him. Fowler noted that sources within the team are "intrigued" about getting him in a full offseason plan with quarterback Josh Allen. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the 30-year-old's status during free agency, as a return to Buffalo could be a possible destination. Cooper was traded to Buffalo prior to their Week 7 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Throughout his eight regular-season games with Buffalo, Cooper caught 20 passes for 297 yards and two scores. He also did not have much of a role during the playoffs, as he caught just six passes for 41 yards. If Cooper re-signs with Buffalo, fantasy managers should expect him to share targets with Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman.

Amari Cooper Hauls In Four Passes Against Chiefs
Amari Cooper caught all four of his targets for 33 yards during Sunday's AFC Championship loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Cooper hadn't totaled more than three catches in a single game since Dec. 8, so it was refreshing to see him get more involved on a steady basis Sunday. However, it wasn't quite enough as the Bills once again failed to take down the Chiefs in the playoffs. Cooper finishes his age-30 season with 50 catches, 588 yards, and four touchdowns split between 17 games with the Bills and Browns. He's slated to hit free agency this March, and a reunion with Buffalo seems unlikely given that he underwhelmed during the final stretch of the 2024 campaign.

Amari Cooper Remains Off Radar Against Kansas City
Amari Cooper has been an unreliable fantasy option lately, and that's unlikely to change during Sunday's AFC Championship against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Bills added Cooper midseason to bolster their receiving room, but he has yet to cement himself as a dependable receiving threat week in and week out. Khalil Shakir has remained the undisputed No. 1 receiver in Buffalo, and players like Keon Coleman, Mack Hollins, and Curtis Samuel have all out-produced Cooper at times, too. The 30-year-old was held without a catch last Sunday versus Baltimore, and he hasn't exceeded three targets in any of his last five games. This week's matchup against the Chiefs won't do him any favors, either. From Weeks 12 through 17, Kansas City allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to perimeter receivers like Cooper.
