After spending the 2016 season out of the league, former Eagles WR Riley Cooper is participating in Buccaneers’ rookie minicamp for tryout purposes. Cooper, a long shot to make the roster, could provide some size to the Buccaneers’ receivers with both Vincent Jackson and Louis Murphy currently free agents.

  • Cooper’s yards per route run in 2015 was the ninth lowest among receivers with at least 310 routes at 0.98 YPRR.
  • Cooper saw his snap percentage decline over his previous three years in the league going from 89.2 percent in 2013 to 81.7 percent in 2014 and then to 49.
