Omar Cooper Jr. posts 103 yards and a score in Week 6

New York Jets wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. had six catches for 103 yards and a touchdown in Week 6 against the Patriots.

By Cole Hartwell

Omar Cooper Jr. recorded six receptions for 103 yards and one touchdown in Week 6 against the Patriots. He was targeted seven times, the most on the team.

What happened

The rookie wide receiver was activated ahead of the game and made an immediate impact. Cooper missed most of the season with an ankle injury and had not played since Week 1.

His 103 receiving yards and touchdown are his first NFL score.

Context

Cooper entered the game with one catch for 30 yards on one target in his only prior appearance this season. He was listed as questionable on Sleeper with an ankle issue but was active for this matchup.

On the depth chart, Cooper sits behind Garrett Wilson, Tim Patrick, Isaiah Williams and Sterling Shepard at wide receiver.

Depth chart

Garrett Wilson remains the Jets’ top receiver. Isaiah Williams has 11 receptions for 151 yards and one touchdown this season. Tim Patrick has two catches for 26 yards, while Sterling Shepard has one reception for three yards.

What’s next

The Jets lost to the Patriots 26-19 in Week 6, dropping their record to 2-4.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Cooper’s breakout performance will make him a popular waiver wire add, and his 155,256 Sleeper adds in the last day suggest managers are already moving. However, his role remains uncertain given the crowded receiver room. Wilson is still the clear top option, and Cooper’s target share may dip when the team faces tougher pass defenses. For now, he is a WR5 with upside, worth stashing in deeper leagues but not a must-start in shallower formats.

Quick answers

What did Omar Cooper Jr. do in Week 6?

Omar Cooper Jr. had six receptions for 103 yards and a touchdown on seven targets against the Patriots.

Is Omar Cooper Jr. a good fantasy football pickup?

Cooper is expected to be a popular waiver wire add after his breakout game, but he is considered a WR5 for now behind Garrett Wilson.
