Brandin Cooks has signed for his second stint with the Saints, but this time he’s in a very different role, a veteran leadership role that he embraces.
Cooks, who was the Saints’ first-round draft pick in 2014 and played three years in New Orleans, said after signing a free agent contract yesterday that he looks forward to teaching the rest of the receivers what they need to know to have a long and successful career.
“Learning how to approach the game from my younger years to now, approaching the game is totally different,” Cooks said. “You know more, you got more knowledge, you got more wisdom, your process of taking care of your body, doing the things that keep you on the field.
