Eagles' Darius Cooper: Week 5 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Cooper had a great Fantasy game in Week 4 against the Rams with three catches for 33 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets, and he scored 18.3 PPR points. DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was out in Week 4, and we'll see if he plays against the Jaguars in Week 5 in London. Dontayvion Wicks (three catches for 18 yards on five targets in Week 4) could also have a bigger role against Jacksonville, and Makai Lemon (three catches for 27 yards on six targets) is also in the mix. It's tough to trust the Eagles right now with a slew of injuries on offense, especially against a tough Jaguars defense. But it's worth taking a flier on Cooper, who also scored a touchdown in Week 2 at Tennessee, for 1 percent of your remaining FAAB.

Eagles' Darius Cooper: Leads team with 3-33-2 receiving in loss
Rotowire
Cooper caught three of seven targets for 33 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams.
With DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dallas Goedert (knee) out versus Los Angeles, Cooper actually led the Eagles in targets and receiving yards while securing both of Jalen Hurts' touchdowns. Each score was of the red-zone variety. Despite carrying a 20-10 lead into halftime, Philly was unable to do anything on the scoreboard after the break. Cooper is unlikely to have much fantasy appeal moving forward if Smith is able to return next Sunday against Jacksonville.

Eagles' Darius Cooper: Longest catch of season Monday
Rotowire
Cooper recorded a 19-yard reception on his lone target in Monday's 22-19 overtime loss to the Chargers.
Cooper finished fourth among Philadelphia wideouts in snaps, taking the field for 21 of the Eagles' 71 offensive plays (30 percent). He came through with his longest play of the season in the fourth quarter, when he took a pass from Jalen Hurts for a 19-yard catch and run. So long as top wideouts A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith stay healthy, the undrafted rookie out of Tarleton State is unlikely to see his role on offense expand.

Eagles' Darius Cooper: First receptions of 2025 in loss
Rotowire
Cooper caught both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.
The Tarleton State product played 12 offensive snaps and operated as the Eagles' No. 4 wideout in the Week 12 loss. He finished with the sixth-most receiving yards on the team, ahead of Jahan Dotson (who went without a catch on one target). Cooper has appeared in just seven games this season, contributing on both offense (72 snaps) and special teams (37 snaps). He's expected to play a similar role in the Week 13 matchup against the Bears.

Eagles' Darius Cooper: Dealing with shoulder issue
Rotowire
Cooper (shoulder) is questionable to return to Monday night's contest against the Packers.
Cooper suffered a shoulder injury in the first quarter of the game, placing some doubt on his ability to return to the field during Monday Night Football. In his absence, Xavier Gipson could stand to see some additional snaps with the offensive unit.

Eagles' Darius Cooper: No looks as third wideout
Rotowire
Cooper served as the Eagles' third wide receiver for Sunday's 38-20 win over the Giants but did not receive a single target.
Cooper's return from a shoulder injury was well-timed, as it gave the Eagles added wideout depth in the absence of A.J. Brown (hamstring). While Cooper did see the field for 25 offensive snaps, Jalen Hurts didn't look his way with any of his 20 pass attempts. Even if Brown remains out following the team's Week 9 bye, Cooper's fantasy value will likely remain limited.

Eagles' Darius Cooper: Sent to IR
Rotowire
The Eagles placed Cooper (shoulder) on injured reserve Wednesday.
Cooper will be sidelined at least four games due to a shoulder injury sustained during Sunday's win over the Rams. The issue reportedly won't require surgery. In his stead, John Metchie becomes positioned for an uptick in opportunities behind A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and Jahan Dotson.
