Amari Cooper scored the game-winning touchdown Sunday night to help Dallas Cowboys earn a 20-16 win over the Minnesota Vikings, but teammate CeeDee Lamb apparently wanted the glory himself.
After the game, Cooper told reporters that Lamb tried to get backup quarterback Cooper Rush to switch the formation in the huddle ahead of the 1st-and-goal play, per Jori Epstein of USA Today. He then asked Cooper to switch roles on the play.
"Coop," Lamb asked Cooper. "You want to let me get this?"
"Hell nah," the veteran responded.
Cooper had missed some snaps due to a hamstring injury, but he came through with the go-ahead score with 51 seconds left:
