Availability
The 49ers signed WR Brandin Cooks to their practice squad.
Fantasy Impact
Cooks will be entering year 13 in the NFL. He'll add depth in the wide receiver room for San Francisco.
Brandin Cooks worked out with the Ravens on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
The Ravens brought in the 32-year old for an official workout on Thursday. This comes in light of the fact that they may be without their top wideout for a short period of time, with Zay Flowers (hamstring) likely to be sidelined for a week or two at least. The workout ended without a deal for Cooks, but we could possibly see him join the team sometime within the next few weeks if they continue to need help at the wide receiver position.
Brandin Cooks delivered his best performance as a Bill during Sunday's 13-12 loss to Philadelphia, catching four of six targets for 101 yards. After managing just one catch over his first four games with the team, the veteran wideout stepped up in the absence of Dalton Kincaid (knee) and Keon Coleman (healthy scratch) to record his first 100-yard receiving game since 2021.
Fantasy Impact
Cooks finished second on the team in targets and receptions behind Khalil Shakir. This breakout effort could earn him a larger role as Buffalo gears up for the postseason. He will look to build on this momentum in the regular-season finale against the Jets in Week 18.
Brandin Cooks will be active for the Bills in Week 13 after joining the team mid-week.
Fantasy Impact
Cooks was released by the Saints earlier this week and found a home with the Bills, who were in need of receiver help. He's going to get his first action with Josh Allen tossing him the rock, but he's tough to trust for fantasy until we see what his workload might be.
Brandin Cooks is expected to be active for Week 13 vs the Steelers.
Fantasy Impact
The veteran wide receiver will make his Bills debut Sunday after being waived by the Saints last week. While Keon Coleman is expected to be active as well, there is plenty of opportunity for Cooks to carve out a role in the Bills' passing attack.
