Darius Cooper vs. Cowboys — Big-Play Threat Enters Risky Territory With Backup Quarterback
Darius Cooper has emerged as an improbable big-play and red-zone weapon with four touchdowns on the year, but his target volume remains razor-thin. With starting quarterback Jalen Hurts sidelined on injured reserve, Cooper will be catching passes from backup Tanner McKee in a divisional clash with Dallas. Cooper remains listed behind Dontayvion Wicks on the perimeter, operating primarily as a rotational deep threat.
Roster rates have climbed to 20%, but fantasy managers are largely keeping him benched for good reason. Our weekly projection pegs Cooper for just 1.2 receptions and 15.9 yards (about 3.6 fantasy points). In an offense facing a defensive battle with a modest 44-point game total, Cooper is purely a touchdown-or-bust flyer who belongs on fantasy benches in standard leagues.

Tee Higgins at Baltimore: Healthy Out of the Bye for High-Scoring Battle
Higgins enters Week 7 fully cleared after groin and neck injuries limited his snaps before Cincinnati's bye week. Now healthy and listed as an unquestioned starting receiver alongside Ja'Marr Chase, Higgins is positioned to resume his customary high-volume role in Joe Burrow's passing attack.
Facing the Ravens on the road in an expected high-scoring divisional matchup, Higgins offers dependable WR2 value with weekly ceiling. Our projections forecast roughly five receptions for 71 yards and half a touchdown, meaning fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats.
