TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' experiment with former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Riley Cooper is over, for now. He leaves Tampa without a contract.
Cooper, 29, attended Bucs rookie camp over the weekend on a tryout basis. It was his first time working out for an NFL team since he was released by the Eagles in February of 2016, something he admitted he was surprised about.
Head coach Dirk Koetter acknowledged that he did do some things to get noticed.
"You could tell that he’s played," said Koetter.
