NFL: Los Angeles Chargers at Houston Texans
Brandin Cooks (personal) remained sidelined at Wednesday’s practice. As was the case Tuesday.
He’s officially questionable for Week 9. Cooks was hoping to be dealt before Tuesday’s trade deadline, but it didn’t happen, and he vented frustrations on social media. He also posted a pitch-perfect Denny Carter impersonation after the trade deadline passed with him still on the team.
The 29-year-old is fantasy’s WR44 through the first eight weeks of the season. He’s scored just 1TD and hasn’t surpassed 75 receiving yards since Week 1.
The Texans host the Eagles Thursday night, and they might be without both Cooks and Nico Collins (groin). Good luck.
