Outlook Omar Cooper
Home matchup against Buffalo brings shootout upside despite ankle tag
Cooper carries a questionable tag after aggravating his ankle injury and logging a limited practice this week, though head coach Aaron Glenn said the rookie starting slot receiver should be fine. Operating alongside Adonai Mitchell while lead wideout Garrett Wilson also sits as questionable with a concussion, Cooper just bounced back from an untargeted game to haul in eight passes for 58 yards.
With the skidding Jets entering as heavy home underdogs in a high-scoring matchup against the surging Bills, Geno Smith should face a pass-heavy script. Widely rostered yet started in roughly a third of leagues, Cooper projects for about 9 fantasy points and 42 receiving yards in our models, making him a volatile flex option. Check back often for the latest updates on his status.

Colby Parkinson at ARI — sneaky deep-league play amid receiver injuries
Parkinson carries a questionable tag with a rib injury after logging a limited practice ahead of this road matchup in Arizona, so check back often for the latest news on his status. Operating behind Tyler Higbee at tight end, Parkinson returned last game to catch all four of his targets, and Puka Nacua's recent multi-week injury vacates significant targets for the offense.
Lightly rostered and rarely started across leagues, Parkinson is best viewed as a risky deep-league play this week. Our weekly projection lands around four receptions for 27 yards and nearly 9 fantasy points, as a projected low-scoring contest with the surging Rams heavily favored could keep overall passing volume in check.
