Cooper, a second-round draft pick, had 3½ sacks, one interception and a team-high 13 tackles for loss while starting four games and playing 55% of the Packers’ defensive snaps.

Williams, a fourth-rounder, started six of the 13 games he played and finished the season with one interception, three passes defensed, a forced fumble and a tackle for loss.
