Browns' Amari Cooper (heel/rest) ready to return for Wild Card
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper (heel/rest) said he will play on Saturday versus the Houston Texans in the Wild Card Round.
What It Means:
Cooper sat out practice on Tuesday and didn't play in the final two games of the regular season, but he will be good to go for Saturday's playoff game in Houston. When the Browns visited the Texans in Week 16, Cooper caught 11 passes on 15 targets for a career-best 265 yards and 2 touchdowns.
numberFire's models project Cooper for 13.1 FanDuel points in the Wild Card Round, with 8.6 targets, 4.9 receptions, and 83.9 yards. The Texans ranked 11th in FanDuel points allowed to wide receivers this season, but their pass defense was only 19th in our opponent-adjusted efficiency rankings.
