2025 Fantasy Outlook
It was far from a perfect rookie season for Cooper, but he flashed productivity in all three phases of defense while also seeing his role increase as the season progressed. He began the campaign in a reserve role but eventually replaced Isaiah McDuffie as the primary inside linebacker working alongside Quay Walker. The results were exciting, if inconsistent. Cooper used his speed and explosiveness to regularly burst into the backfield and make plays to disrupt offenses (13 tackles for loss, seven quarterback hits, 3.5 sacks) but also had a missed tackle rate of 15.4 percent. He was sufficient in coverage, so a three-down role as early as 2025 isn't out of the question. Cooper is one of the top IDP breakout candidates. Read Past Outlooks

Scoops fumble in Week 15 loss
LBGreen Bay Packers
December 16, 2025
Cooper logged eight tackles (seven solo), including two tackles for a loss, one pass defense and one fumble recovery during the Packers' 34-26 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Cooper jumped on an RJ Harvey (ribs) fumble caused by Micah Parsons (knee) early in the first quarter, and the Packers' offense capitalized on the turnover by converting it into a 53-yard field goal from Brandon McManus eight plays later. Cooper has tallied at least eight tackles in each of his last three games, and the 2024 second-rounder is up to 105 combined tackles through 14 regular-season games. It's the first time in his young career that he's reached the tackling century mark, and he'll look to add to his total in Saturday's road tilt against the Bears, a game that carries major playoff implications.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Looking to bolster the middle linebacker position amid a move to a 4-3 defense, the Packers scooped up Cooper in the second round of this year's draft. Cooper brings little size (6-2, 230 pounds) but plenty of speed (4.51 40) to the table, and he was in the backfield frequently in his final year of college. Green Bay's top two tacklers from last season return, and Cooper is projected to slot into the starting spot between the two of them.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could emerge as defensive star
LBGreen Bay Packers
June 16, 2025
Cooper seems poised for a huge season in the middle of the Packers defense, Marc Ross of NFL.com projects.
ANALYSIS
As a rookie in 2024, Cooper was eased into a larger role at linebacker before missing three games in the second half due to a hamstring injury, but once he returned he was a tackling machine, racking up 35 stops over the final four regular-season games and eight more in a wild-card loss to the Eagles. Cooper proceeded to add 10 pounds of muscle this offseason without apparently losing any explosiveness, and his ability to stay healthy might be the only thing standing between him and a breakthrough campaign.
