Summary

Tight End Rank: #78All Players: #455

Cooley was slowed by a knee injury early in the season and ended his season after five games, getting surgery on the knee. He should be healthy for the coming year but could play more of a backup role going forward. Cooley had eight receptions in five games before shutting it down last year. Cooley is 30 years old and has played a full season just once the last three seasons. He is starting to break down some. Cooley has been a consistent option in the passing game when playing, though. He has 700-plus yard five of eight seasons. He has never topped 850 yards, though, and his career high in touchdowns is eight. Cooley isn't a huge tight end, but he has pretty good size and runs well for his size. And he has plus hands, catching nearly everything thrown his way.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Cooley isn't a top fantasy option anymore, but is worth a bench spot. He can still get 500 or 600 yards and a few scores, giving him some value on a spot start basis. His best days are behind him but he remains capable of the occasional big game.

Notes

Nov 26 04:22 pm

Washington Redskins TE Chris Cooley has not caught a pass since joining the team but is not upset with his role on offense. 'I didn't know what to expect. I would have hoped for more at this point,' Cooley said. 'But it's fun to be a part of this team. It's fun to be a part of the two wins in a row. We'll see if we can get hot and make the playoffs.' He said he is not sure if he will have a bigger role in the offense moving forward.

Nov 07 10:13 am

Washington Redskins TE Chris Cooley has played just 29 snaps over his first two weeks back with the team as TE Logan Paulsen has been receiving the majority of playing time. Cooley said he does not have an issue with the playing time. 'Honestly, I didn't know what to expect. I'm happy to be a part of whatever I can do,' Cooley said. 'Hopefully, for me, it grows throughout the season. But it's a good bunch of guys to be around and a good locker room, and I'm happy to do whatever I can, and if that's just being here and helping with the little details, then I'm happy to do that.' Offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan said that game matchups would determine whether or not Cooley saw a spike in playing time down the road.

The Washington Redskins and free-agent TE Chris Cooley (Redskins) have agreed to terms Sunday, Oct. 21. The deal is contingent upon Cooley passing a physical Monday, Oct. 22.
