Darius Cooper Scores 2 TDs on 3 Catches in Eagles Loss to Rams

Summary
Cooper turned 3 catches on 7 targets into 33 yards and two touchdowns in Philadelphia’s Week 4 loss, accounting for one of the Eagles’ few bright spots.
His first score came on an 18-yard fluke after he ripped away a Jalen Hurts end-zone interception from Quentin Lake, and his second was a 10-yarder after the Rams left him uncovered.
Those plays lifted Cooper to 3 touchdowns on just 5 catches this season, but only 10 targets through four games still leave him well short of fantasy WR4 relevance.
Even with DeVonta Smith sidelined by a hamstring injury, Cooper’s limited volume suggests his scoring burst is more opportunistic than a sign of a larger role.
