The New Orleans Saints have made a notable move by reuniting with wide receiver Brandin Cooks, who had previously played for the team from 2014 to 2016 before his trade to New England. Cooks has signed a two-year, $13 million deal, signaling the team's desire to bolster their offense. His earlier tenure with the Saints was marked by significant achievements, alongside frustrations regarding his role when newcomer Michael Thomas was drafted. Cooks' last NFL season with the Dallas Cowboys included a knee infection that limited his play, yet he remains a formidable receiver.
Cooks expressed frustration about his role in the offense toward the end of his final season there following the selection of Michael Thomas in the 2016 draft. "Closed mouths don't get fed," Cooks said at the time.
Cooks was traded to the Patriots in 2017 in exchange for a 2017 first-round pick, which was used to select All-Pro right tackle Ryan Ramczyk.
