round draft picks to the Houston Texans this offseason in exchange for the veteran. Rather than stretch it, there’s a better chance you haven’t noticed when he is on the field.No one should expect Cooks to solve the Cowboys red zone issues. At 5-foot-10, 183 pounds he’s not built for those types of plays.
After the Cowboys’ win on Sunday against the New England Patriots, I asked him if he’s bothered at all by his production thus far.If Brandin Cooks was 22, or even 25, that statement would be hard to believe.. He’s in his 10th year in the NFL. He’s made a lot of money, and he’s been around long enough to know.
“I’m out there affecting the game in different ways,” he said. “We all do. I might have a big game, I might not. At the end of the day, you get the win in that win column and that takes care of everything. I truly mean that.”Cooks says he is. The Cowboys say he is. In the Cowboys’ Week 4 blowout win over the New England Patriots, a pass play that went to rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker in the first quarter was there. Prescott hit his receiver in tight coverage, only Schoonmaker didn’t catch what wouldOn the route, Cooks was there for a touchdown but Dak never looked at him. These things happen. The concern is if they happen a lot. Three games isn’t a lot.
