2024 Fantasy Outlook
Cooper was on pace for 77 catches, 1,351 yards and four touchdowns last season at the time of Deshaun Watson's season-ending shoulder injury. The veteran wideout then managed only 84 yards over the next three games, including one he left early with a concussion, before exploding for 451 yards and three TDs in Weeks 14-16 while repeatedly connecting with QB Joe Flacco downfield. Cooper finished with career highs for receiving yards (1,250), yards per game (83.3) and yards per catch (17.4), though he missed the final two weeks of the regular season with a heel injury and was held to 59 yards in one playoff game. He's reached 1,000 yards seven times in nine seasons, never scoring more than nine TDs or less than five. One might even call him consistent, even though he had a reputation for week-to-week inconsistency during his time with the Raiders (2015-18) and perhaps part of his tenure in Dallas (2018-21). Cooper turns 30 this summer and will once again inhabit an offense led by Watson and head coach Kevin Stefanski. Confidence in Watson is generally waning, but Cooper did account for 23.6 percent of Watson's targets and a whopping 43.0 percent of his yardage last year, hauling in 28 of 39 passes for 480 yards and two TDs. The chemistry with every other pass catcher may have been off, but that does create some hope that Cooper can have another productive year even if Watson never rediscovers his Houston form.

Misses final day of minicamp
Cooper didn't report to June minicamp, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
ANALYSIS
With his absence confirmed for a third straight day, Cooper can be fined slightly more than $100,000. He's in the final year of his contract and looking for a new deal, following a 2023 season in which he had career highs for receiving yards (1,250) and yards per catch (17.4) despite missing two games and playing with four different quarterbacks. He struggled to produce with PJ Walker and especially Dorian Thompson-Robinson, but Cooper reached 90 yards in four of Deshaun Watson's six starts and averaged 121.3 yards in the four games he played with Joe Flacco. Cooper will turn 30 next week and remains crucial to the Cleveland offense even after an offseason trade for Jerry Jeudy.

Unbothered by playing most of the season with the mediocre Jacoby Brissett as his quarterback, Cooper enjoyed a rebound season in 2022 after a slow finish to his three-and-a-half-year tenure in Dallas. Nine touchdowns represented a career high, with 132 targets tying his previous best and 1,160 yards marking his second most. Cooper has never quite been the high-end WR1 many expected when the Raiders made him the fourth overall pick in 2015, but he does have six 1,000-yard campaigns in nine years and has never scored fewer than five touchdowns in a season. One concern from last year is that he actually put up better numbers with Brissett than with Deshaun Watson, though it didn't help that four of the six Watson games were December/January home contests in Cleveland, where wind tends to be a bigger factor than in any NFL locale. The Browns have other weapons in TE David Njoku, WR Donovan Peoples-Jones and offseason addition Elijah Moore, but only Moore has shown potential to threaten the volume of someone like Cooper ... and Moore is coming off a complete bust of a second season in New York. The greater concern is that Watson didn't look like his old self last year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Looking for significant guarantees
Cooper could be aiming to get as much as $50 million in guaranteed money in a new contract extension from the Browns, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The $35 million that Mike Evans received from the Buccaneers in early March on a two-year extension figures to be the floor for what Cooper would find acceptable, but Calvin Ridley got $50 million in guarantees from the Titans a week later on a four-year deal, and the wide receiver market has hardly cooled down since then. Cooper has been impressive during his two years in Cleveland, catching 150 passes for 2,410 yards and 14 touchdowns in 32 regular-season games, and his 17.4 yards per reception in 2023 was a career high.
