Outlook Darius Cooper
Darius Cooper vs. Panthers — Touchdown streak faces a test with Hurts sidelined
Cooper has emerged as a big-play threat for Philadelphia, catching four touchdowns over his last three games. However, the offense faces major disruption with starting quarterback Jalen Hurts landing on injured reserve with a calf issue. Cooper operates in a rotational receiver role behind Dontayvion Wicks and DeVonta Smith, leaning heavily on low-volume splash plays.
With backup Tanner McKee taking over in a contest projected for low scoring, Cooper’s efficiency will be tested. We project him for roughly 16 receiving yards on one to two catches, reflecting his minimal volume. Started in only 6% of leagues, he is a touchdown-dependent deep-league flier best left on fantasy benches.
