ARLINGTON, Texas -- Try as he might, wide receiver Amari Cooper could not run away from the fourth play of the Dallas Cowboys' 34-24 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
Cooper caught 11 passes for a career-high 226 yards, including a 53-yard touchdown, but he could have had another 20 or so yards or maybe even a touchdown if everything had gone the way he planned.
Instead, quarterback Dak Prescott's pass deflected off Cooper and into the waiting arms of cornerback Jaire Alexander for an interception, ending a Cowboys' scoring chance and allowing Green Bay to score its first touchdown.
