Quick answer
WatchCooper had 21 solo tackles, 8 sacks in 2025, finishing LB79. Recent form cooled from LB49 to LB79 — watch whether that's noise or a real step down. 2026 looks more like a flex than a locked starter. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
