Amari Cooper reports to Browns training camp after reworking deal
Credit: Scott Galvin-USA TODAY Sports Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper reported to the start of training camp after the team handed him a $5 million raise and guaranteed his original base salary of $20 million on Tuesday, July 23. SOURCE: The Cleveland Plain Dealer – Mary Kay Cabot Fantasy football advice: Cooper has been a durable and strong WR2 fantasy asset virtually every season since joining the NFL in 2015. His production was a bit more inconsistent last season as Cleveland rotated through multiple quarterbacks, but managers witnessed the kind of upside he possesses when he burned the Houston Texans for 265 yards and two touchdowns in Week 16 last year. Assuming Deshaun Watson can stay healthy and regain form in 2024, Cooper should finish as a top-15 fantasy receiver.
