Omar Cooper Jr. held without a catch in Jets' loss to Raiders

Summary

New York Jets wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. did not record any receiving yards during the team’s Week 8 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. After impressive performances with 100-yard games in his first two NFL outings, Cooper was not targeted by quarterback Geno Smith in this matchup. Garrett Wilson and Adonai Mitchell led the Jets' receiving efforts with 12 and nine targets, respectively. As a result of his lack of involvement, Cooper's role is now more uncertain heading into the Week 9 game against the Kansas City Chiefs, where his performance is expected to be closely watched.
