21 Marcus Cooper DB

Cooper recorded one tackle in six games during the 2018 season.

Cooper began the season in Chicago but was cut loose after two games. He eventually resurfaced in Detroit but only saw action on defense in three games. Cooper will become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the league year.

Cooper (back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Cooper sat out Detriot's loss to the Bills in Week 15, but now appears on track to retake the field. If the veteran is able to suit up against the Vikings on Sunday, he could see rotational snaps in the Lions' secondary.

Cooper (back) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Cooper was forced to exit last week's tilt against the Cardinals prematurely due to a back injury that will also keep him sidelined Sunday. The Lions are otherwise fairly healthy at cornerback, so Cooper's absence shouldn't have too much of an impact.

Cooper left Sunday's game against the Cardinals with a back injury, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Cooper provides depth for Detroit at cornerback and is third on the depth chart. Nevin Lawson and Teez Tabor will continue to hold down the fort while the 28-year-old is out.

Cooper was claimed off waivers by the Lions on Friday, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.

Cooper has spent the 2018 season with Chicago but was just waived by the team Wednesday. It didn't take long for the 28-year-old cornerback to find a new home, and Cooper will most likely slide in as a depth cornerback for the Lions.
