During the FS1’s Undisputed broadcast, Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless speak about the Browns annihilating the Bengals. Amari Cooper bludgeoned the Cincy defense, which led them to a sweep by 32-13. It led to the ex-NFL TE reflecting on how Jerry Jones dropped Cooper and moved on while putting a flaring question.
Shannon Sharpe mentioned, “We saw what Dak [Prescott] was before he got Amari [Cooper]. You were waiting for CeeDee [Lamb] to do what Amari did for Dak. Have you seen that? I have not. There’s no question in my mind… I mean, you talk about possibly; Would you even be thinking about Odell if you had Amari?”
Sharpe pointed out that the Cowboys’ wide receivers are next to the bottom of the league. They weren’t present when Cooper was there; it listed them in a super high position. He also believes that to let CeeDee Lamb ascend, they had to allow Amari Cooper to wither away.
Amari Cooper had great responsibilities in the winning sweep against the Bengals. He has put on a productive show since his arrival. Moreover, with Dallas struggling for some receiver help, it might be a loss for the Blue Star to trade him off.
