Cowboys news: Brandin Cooks is ready to bring explosive play to Dallas

Wide receiver Brandin Cooks is going to stretch the field for Dallas’ offense.

While Dallas finished 2022 a top-five team in points per game, they saw just 81 explosive pass plays (16+ yards) over the course of the season. That was actually under the league average, and a stat they aim to raise this fall.

Enter Brandin Cooks. The veteran receiver who’s already notched 1,000-yard campaigns with four different clubs, believes that’s a big reason why the Cowboys traded for him in March.

“I just want to continue to bring that explosive play,” Cooks told reporters this week during OTAs.
