In his first game for the Green Bay Packers in the NFL, Edgerrin Cooper - the 2024 second-round pick out of Texas A&M - played limited snaps but showed some very nice things. It was a welcome sight for a team that hasn’t seen a difference-making inside linebacker for many years.
When watching the game live, he certainly popped out with some splash plays. Whenever that happens, I can’t wait to dig into the film and see if it backs up what my eyes saw through the limited view of the broadcast camera.
I’m even more eager to dive in when I see comments like this from the head coach:
