Quick answer
BuyCooper caught 7 passes for 130 yards in 2026, ranking WR33 through 5 games. The running rank is WR33 through 5 games, from WR162. Don't treat that like a season finish. Played a short 2025 (6 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
