Active 53-Man Roster

-> In Dallas' 40-0 win over New York, Cooks hauled in two of his four targets for 22 yards... The Cowboys didn't need to throw much in this season's opener, look for Cooks to be busier as time goes on...

WR Isaiah Hodgins (2017-19) - New York Giants - First String

-> While Cooks and the Cowboys cruised to victory, Hodgins and the Giants were on the opposite side of the blowout... Despite the lopsided score, Hodgins tallied one catch for 24 yards on three targets... He also had a fumble...
