Jets' Omar Cooper: Two long catches and TD in Week 7
Cooper caught all five of his targets for 115 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Dolphins.Cooper topped 100 receiving yards with a TD for the second time in as many games since returning from an ankle injury sustained in his regular-season debut. The rookie 30th overall pick had a 52-yard catch in the first quarter and a 60-yard catch in the third, then added a three-yard touchdown reception three plays after the second long catch. Cooper has been a big-play machine when healthy, and he'll look to build on his strong start in Week 8 against the Raiders.

Jets' Omar Cooper: Could be set for lesser role
Cooper may get fewer looks in the passing game Sunday versus Miami with Adonai Mitchell cleared to return from a finger injury, Amanda Vogt of the New York Jets' official site reports.Cooper shined in his return from IR this past Sunday against New England, catching six of seven targets for 103 yards and a touchdown. That performance will likely gain him more attention from QB Geno Smith moving forward, but it must also be noted that Cooper's big game came in the absence of Mitchell, who is set to return Sunday following a four-game absence. Both Cooper and Mitchell are likely to remain behind Garrett Wilson in the pecking order, but it will be interesting to see if either Cooper or Mitchell is able to separate himself as the team's No. 2 wideout.

Jets' Omar Cooper: Paces air attack in return
Cooper brought in six of seven targets for 103 yards and a touchdown in the New York Jets' 26-19 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.Making his return from a four-game stint on injured reserve due to an ankle sprain suffered on the opening possession of the season, Cooper hit the ground running and finished as the team leader in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The Indiana product also recorded his first NFL touchdown on a 48-yard strike from Geno Smith early in the third quarter, and his instant production despite the layoff gives his fantasy outlook a significant boost heading into a Week 7 home matchup against the Dolphins.

Jets' Omar Cooper: Returning to action Week 6
Cooper (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots.Cooper will suit up for the first time since Week 1, when he sustained a high-ankle sprain on the New York Jets' first offensive possession of the season in an eventual win over the Titans. The rookie first-round pick out of Indiana returned to practice this week, turning in a pair of limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday before upgrading to full participation Friday and getting activated from injured reserve Saturday. With Adonai Mitchell (finger) out for another week, Cooper could potentially settle in as the Jets' No. 2 receiver Sunday, pushing Tim Patrick down a spot on the depth chart.

Cooper (ankle) is being activated from injured reserve Saturday and is expected to be available for Sunday's AFC East tilt against the Patriots, Connor Hughes of SNY TV reports.Cooper earned the questionable tag for Week 6 after logging a full practice Friday, and it looks like the rookie first-rounder will be back on the field after spending the last four weeks on injured reserve due to an ankle injury he sustained against the Titans in Week 1. With Adonai Mitchell (finger) sidelined, Cooper could slide into the New York Jets' WR2 role behind Garrett Wilson for Sunday's contest.

Cooper (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at New England.Cooper was a full practice participant Friday, upgrading from limited participation the previous two days.

Jets' Omar Cooper: Stays limited in practice
Cooper (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.Cooper had his reps capped for the second day in a row after the New York Jets designated him for return from injured reserve Wednesday. The Jets will have just under three weeks to reinstate Cooper, so the rookie wideout may need to upgrade to full participation in Friday's session to have a shot at suiting up this weekend versus the Patriots. Cooper recorded a 30-yard reception and played just five snaps before exiting his NFL debut Week 1 against the Titans in the first quarter due to a high-ankle sprain.

Jets' Omar Cooper: Limited in return to practice
Cooper (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.After being designated for return from injured reserve earlier Wednesday, Cooper operated with a cap on his reps in his first practice since he exited the New York Jets' Week 1 win over the Titans due to a high-ankle sprain. The Jets haven't ruled out the possibility of the rookie first-round pick being activated from IR in advance of Sunday's game against the Patriots, but he'll likely need to practice fully Thursday and/or Friday to have a realistic chance at suiting up this weekend.
