Quick return to practice
Cooper (ankle) returned to practice Wednesday after missing Tuesday's session, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Cooper "tweaked" his ankle Monday, temporarily depleting a wideout group that's already missing rookie third-round pick David Bell (foot) and 2021 third-round pick Anthony Schwartz (knee). The lack of experience behind Cooper should lead him to a considerable target share as the Browns' obvious No. 1 receiver, though he's coming off a mediocre season in Dallas and likely won't be catching passes from Deshaun Watson (suspension) until at least Week 7.
