Amari Cooper isn’t sweating Cowboys contract talk

Amari Cooper and the Dallas Cowboys have not made headway in their contract negotiations, and no light could be shed by the star receiver on if progress has been made lately.
“I have not talked to [my representatives ] in a moment,” Cooper said, via the team’s official site. “I really don’t like talking about the contract. I feel like it is one of those things which will naturally happen.”
Cooper, coming a lively end of the 2018 campaign off to Dallas after the transaction, is more worried than when he will put his John Hancock to a contract about learning Kellen Moore’s offense.

“Yeah, I only handle my business,” Cooper stated. “I’m more worried about camp”
Cooper has little reason to worry. The 24-year-old is set to create $13.924 million on the fifth year of the rookie contract. In case a deal isn’t struck, which would amount to a yearlong pay raise for Cooper, the Cowboys — that gave up a first-round choice to acquire his services — would then apply the franchise tag.
For Cooper, who snagged 53 passes for 725 yards and six touchdowns in nine games with the Cowboys, the focus is about building his rapport with Dak Prescott. Through minicamp, Moore has moved the receiver that was energetic more than he was used this past year, together with Cooper moving in motion and seeing increased time in the slot.
“I love it. I loved the offense last year,” Cooper stated. “With Kellen, I still love it. I think that it gives me an opportunity to display my skill-set together with the sort. He’s obviously a good coach. He’s a young guy and we can relate to him a great deal and come up to him and talk about particular things.”
All signs are Cooper. When the Cowboys do not lock him — if these predictions prove accurate, he would get paid handsomely.
