It was a whirlwind summer for Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Darius Cooper.
It’s one thing for an undrafted rookie from an FCS program like Tarleton State to receive a training camp invite from the reigning Super Bowl champions. It’s another for that player to emerge as a fan favorite, crush every opportunity, and earn a spot on the initial 53-man roster.
Cooper was easily the Eagles’ most celebrated player on cut-down day. The 23-year-old balled out in Philly’s preseason opener with six receptions for 82 yards and a touchdown. After he made the roster, fans wondered if he could push No.
