Whether it’s gameplan, player regression, lack of chemistry or something else, it’s obvious Brandin Cooks has not put up the stats in 2022 he’s been known for in prior years.
Through 6 games this season, Cooks has only 28 catches for 281 yards on 47 targets. Add in 13 receiving first downs and only 1 touchdown and you could say this season is shaping up to be a disappointment.
Play this forward through 17 games and Cooks will amass 79 catches for 796 yards and less than 3 touchdowns.
Those certainly aren't the numbers of a premier WR1 in today’s NFL.
