The Buffalo Bills are currently 6-2 in the 2024 NFL season and have recently acquired Amari Cooper from the Cleveland Browns. Despite shedding some roster spots in the offseason to improve their cap situation, the Bills were in a position to make a trade at the deadline.
Cooper might be their only move, but he provides quarterback Josh Allen with an additional weapon. In his first two games with Buffalo, Cooper has made five catches for 69 yards and one touchdown. The Bills are currently leading the AFC East and are on track to secure the division title soon.
However, Cooper is dealing with a wrist injury, which could impact his performance. He began his career with the Oakland Raiders before spending time with the Dallas Cowboys and the Browns, and now the Bills. Over his career, Cooper has recorded 696 receptions for 9,805 yards and 63 touchdowns, and he is likely to surpass the 10,000-yard milestone this season unless unforeseen issues arise.
The Bills are aiming to finally overcome obstacles in the AFC and make a Super Bowl run. They believe they’re stronger than the Kansas City Chiefs this year, though they’ve suffered losses to the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans, placing them as potentially the third-best team in the AFC.
For the Bills to achieve a deep playoff run, having a seasoned veteran like Cooper on the field will be crucial, so they’re hoping his wrist injury isn’t serious.
