Rams trade Brandin Cooks to Houston for draft pick

The Los Angeles Rams’ 2020 makeover continued Thursday afternoon as they sent receiver Brandin Cooks to the Houston Texans. The Rams, who added a 2022 fourth-round pick to the deal, will receive the No. 57 pick in this month’s draft.

The Rams acquired Cooks in 2018 from the New England Patriots, along with a fourth round pick, in exchange for the 23rd overall pick in the draft. Cooks had previously been traded for a first round pick in 2017 when the New Orleans Saints sent him to the Patriots. Prior to that, Cooks was a first round pick in the 2014 NFL Draft.
