Playing less than 50% of the Green Bay Packers' defensive snaps, not to mention missing three games with injury, Edgerrin Cooper probably won't be the NFL's defensive rookie of the year. But he's certainly getting attention.

Coop’s done it again.

In the 30-13 win over Seattle, Cooper hauled in a game-clinching interception and had a sack, five tackles (two for loss) and two passes defended.
