Ex-Patriots Receiver Brandin Cooks Unbothered By Trade To Cowboys

Former New England Patriots wide receiver Brandin Cooks was dealt for the fourth time, which doesn’t bother the nine-year NFL veteran.

After three seasons with the Houston Texans, Cooks was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for a fifth-round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft plus a sixth-round pick in 2024. That stint with Houston tied his run with the New Orleans Saints as Cooks’ longest time spent with an organization.

Now set to suit up in Cowboys blue, Cooks views his latest swap with a positive lens.

“I’ve never really gotten upset, because obviously that means someone out there wants me to be a part of their group,” Cooks said following the trade, according to Pro Football Talk.
