Riley Cooper had three catches for 39 yards in Sunday night's Week 17 win over Dallas. |
Cooper secured all three of his targets from Nick Foles, with his biggest play coming on a 19-yard catch in the fourth quarter. He finishes the regular season with 47 catches, 835 yards, and eight touchdowns. Cooper will remain the No. 3 option in the passing game when the Eagles take on the Saints in the first round of the playoffs. |

Sun Dec 15 2013 | 18:36 | Riley Cooper quiet in loss at MIN |
Riley Cooper caught four passes for 29 yards in Sunday's Week 15 loss at Minnesota. |
On a day Nick Foles attempted 48 passes and threw for 482 yards, Cooper was quiet with just seven targets. He did convert a two-point conversion, giving disappointed owners a slight boost. Cooper has now been held under 74 yards in four straight weeks and hasn't scored a touchdown during that span. With a tougher matchup against the Bears on deck, he'll be a risky WR3 type. Cooper's talent limitations are starting to catch up with him. |

Fri Dec 13 2013 | 09:35 | Riley Cooper wants to re-sign with Eagles |
Free-agent-to-be Riley Cooper says he wants to re-sign with the Eagles. |
"I want to be back here," Cooper said. "Everyone around here knows that I love the scheme. I think I fit in it well with the bubble screens and the stuff that we do with blocking and being a bigger guy and a bigger target." Over the past eight games, Cooper has drawn 51 targets and is a legitimate threat with Nick Foles running the offense. Cooper has earned himself some money. |

Sun Nov 17 2013 | 18:28 | Riley Cooper comes up just short of TD |
Riley Cooper caught three passes for 37 yards in Sunday's Week 11 win over the Redskins. |
For once, Cooper actually played better than the stats show. He drew a big penalty in the first half, was tackled a few feet short of the goal-line in the second half and saw a team-high seven targets (the bromance with Nick Foles continues). Cooper will be a WR3 against the Cardinals when the Eagles come out of their bye in Week 13. |

Riley Cooper (knee) is practicing in full this week. |

Mon Nov 11 2013 | 09:24 | Riley Cooper and Foles have something going |
Riley Cooper has caught 15 passes for 393 yards and six touchdowns from Nick Foles this season. |
Although Michael Vick has attempted five more passes than Foles this year, Cooper has just eight catches for 93 yards and one touchdown from the Week 1 starter. It's blatantly obvious that Foles has far more confidence in Cooper and proved it Sunday by chucking a bomb to him despite double coverage. With Foles likely under center for the rest of the season, Cooper is on the WR3 radar. He has a plus matchup with the Redskins in Week 11. |

Riley Cooper (illness) has resumed practicing in full. |
Cooper's illness was never a concern for his Week 10 status. With three 80-yard efforts in his past four games, Cooper is a WR4 who can serve in a WR3 pinch. |

Riley Cooper (illness) returned to practice Wednesday. |
Cooper was sent home Tuesday but is obviously feeling better. We wouldn't chase Cooper's crazy Week 9 too hard, but he's on the WR4 radar this week. |

Riley Cooper was sent home from Tuesday's practice due to illness. |
Cooper has plenty of time to rest up before Sunday's game at Green Bay. Although he's short on speed and separation ability, he's long on opportunity right now. In NIck Foles' last three starts, Cooper has averaged 5.0 catches for 115.6 yards and scored four times. He'll be a WR4 against the Pack. |

Riley Cooper caught two passes for 13 yards in Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Giants. |
Hopefully you didn't chase Cooper's fluky lines from the last two weeks. He was back in his blocking role Sunday, and also showed his usual inability to separate on his five targets. Cooper is now on pace for 40 catches, 628 yards and four touchdowns. There are far better options on your waiver wire despite a good matchup at Oakland in Week 9. |

Sun Oct 20 2013 | 18:31 | Riley Cooper has another solid game |
Riley Cooper caught six passes for 88 yards in Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Cowboys. |
For the second straight week, we caution owners not to overreact to Cooper's nice line. This time, much of his yardage came in garbage time with Dallas in a soft zone. Prior to this two-week run, Cooper hadn't topped two catches for 29 yards in a game all year. His role has not changed. |

Sun Oct 6 2013 | 17:56 | Riley Cooper held without a catch |
Riley Cooper did not catch a pass in Sunday's Week 5 win over the Giants. |
Cooper is a blocker that can't separate. He's arguably the worst starting receiver in the league in terms of pass-catching. Through five weeks, Cooper has totaled eight catches for 93 yards despite playing almost every snap. |

Fri Sep 20 2013 | 00:29 | Riley Cooper has two-catch night |
Riley Cooper caught two passes for 29 yards in Philadelphia's Week 3 loss to the Chiefs. |
It was a pathetic night for the Eagles' stone-handed "No. 2 receiver," who committed three drops, and would have finished with only one catch had Chiefs CB Sean Smith not doubled over in cramps. Cooper is a failed experiment as an NFL receiver, but the Eagles simply have no one else to trout out. |

Sun Sep 15 2013 | 18:58 | Riley Cooper gets his first TD of season |
Riley Cooper caught two passes for 25 yards with a touchdown in Sunday's Week 2 loss to the Chargers. |
Cooper's first touchdown of the season came on a physical slant route from 13 yards out. Don't chase those points. Cooper saw just three targets in the game and has four catches through two weeks. He's a blocker. |

Tue Sep 10 2013 | 00:03 | Cooper reels in 2-of-6 targets Monday night |
Riley Cooper caught two passes for 14 yards in Philadelphia's Week 1 win over the Redskins on Monday night. |
Cooper was targeted six times, but was largely ineffective as a bit piece of the offense. Cooper has the No. 2 receiver label in Philadelphia, but he's near the bottom of the totem pole for targets. He's off the fantasy radar. |

Thu Sep 5 2013 | 16:25 | Cary Williams and Cary Williams brawl Thurs. |
Eagles teammates Riley Cooper and Cary Williams got into a "heated scuffle" in Thursday's practice, and had to be separated by "several players." |
According to beat writer Jeff McLane, Williams used a racial slur in the incident. Cooper, of course, came under fire after amateur video caught him using a racial slur at a concert this summer. However, FOX Sports' Alex Marvez reports Thursday's incident wasn't "race related." Cooper's ugly-hearted foolishness has put a target on his back this season. |
