Amari Cooper shrugs off criticism of trade from Raiders to Cowboys

People say some insulting things on Twitter, especially to those in the public eye. Jimmy Kimmel has turned cold-blooded correspondence into comedy on his late night talk show during a popular segment called “Mean Tweets,” concept that has spread to other stations and markets.

Amari Cooper has received plenty of negative feedback since turning pro in 2015, never more so than after the Raiders receiver was traded to Dallas this season for a first round pick.

Some thought Cowboys owner/GM Jerry Jones gave up too much to get Cooper. Raiders fans said good riddance on the way out, believing him to be too inconsistent to be a top NFL receiver.
