Hangin’ With Mr. Cooper? — Patriots Among Teams Mentioned to Possibly Acquire WR Amari Cooper

The New England Patriots are expected to seek some help at wide receiver this offseason. As fate would have it, one of the league’s top players may soon be available.

However, will it be worth their while to pursue him? Better yet, will it be worth the cost?

As ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Friday, the Dallas Cowboys are “likely” to release veteran wide receiver Amari Cooper in the coming days. Despite being one of the most productive wideouts in the NFL, Cooper’s $20 million salary will become guaranteed March 20, making him a bit too costly for the Cowboys as they head into the 2022 season.
