HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Detroit Lions
In the win over New England last week, Brandin Cooks did most of his damage in the first half, as he led Houston with 85 yards on four catches. In the past six contests, Cooks is averaging six receptions for 83 yards, with two of his three TDs this season coming during that span. The Lions are No. 25 against the pass so Cooks makes for a WR2 option on Thursday.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs. New England Patriots
In the loss at Cleveland last week, Brandin Cooks turned eight targets into six receptions for 39 yards. Deshaun Watson was held to just 163 passing yards by the Browns defense and windy conditions. Even though New England owns a good pass defense look for better things from the Texans aerial attack on Sunday, making Cooks a WR3/flex option.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Cleveland Browns
In the victory against the Jags last Sunday, Brandin Cooks grabbed three passes for 83 yards, including a 57-yard TD. During the past four contests, Cooks has averaged seven catches for 93 yards and scored three times. On the road against a below-average Cleveland pass defense, consider Cooks a WR2 play.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Jacksonville Jaguars
In the three contests before the Texans bye, Brandin Cooks averaged 10 targets, eight receptions and 96 yards. Also, both of his touchdowns with Houston came during that span. In last month’s win over Jacksonville Cooks went off for 161 yards and a TD, so consider him a WR2 play in Sunday’s rematch.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Green Bay Packers
After a slow start last week in Tennessee, Brandin Cooks finished with a team-high nine grabs for 68 yards and a score. In the past two games, he’s been targeted 21 times, leading to 17 receptions for 229 yards and two TDs. It looks like it took some time for Deshaun Watson and Cooks to be on the same page, but owners have to be hopeful things have turned the corner. Cooks is a WR3/flex start on Sunday versus the Pack.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Tennessee Titans
Deshaun Watson threw for 359 yards in the win over the Jaguars last week, with Brandin Cooks busting out for eight grabs, 161 yards and his first TD as a Texan. In his first four games with Houston Cooks totaled only 10 receptions and 138 yards. Watson has passed for at least 250 yards in all five contests this season so if Cooks has the potential to be a part of your starting lineup each week. At the No. 23 Tennessee pass defense on Sunday he makes for a WR3/flex option.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
With the return of a healthy Will Fuller, Brandin Cooks has become a forgotten part of the Texans offense the past two weeks. In the loss to Minnesota last Sunday he was shutout on three targets, as Watson connected with seven other pass catchers. Through the first quarter of the season Cooks has only 10 catches and no TDs. Even though the Jaguars defense hasn’t been able to slow down any opponent, he makes for a risky fantasy start.
