• Texans' Brandin Cooks: Earns two-year extension

  04/07/2022 •

  The Texans and Cooks agreed to a two-year contract extension Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The move puts to bed rumors that Cooks could be on the move this offseason and locks him in with Houston through the 2024 season. Only 28 years old, he's been a member of four organizations in his eight-year career, going for at least 1,000 yards in six of the last seven seasons and surpassing the 80-catch mark four times during that span. Cooks will continue to serve as the unquestioned No. 1 option for the Texans' passing game moving forward.

• Texans' Brandin Cooks: Leads team in receiving

  01/03/2022 •

  Cooks (illness) hauled in seven of 11 targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-7 loss to San Francisco. Cooks returned from a one-game absence on the reserve/COVID-19 list, staying hot after posting two strong fantasy showings in his previous two contests. The veteran accounted for the majority of the receiving unit's statistics, as only one other wideout (Nico Collins) finished with more than one reception. Davis Mills has struggled at times this year, but he has clearly made an effort to get the ball into Cooks' hands, which is what the receiver's fantasy managers like to see heading into the season finale against the Titans.
