Jared Cook Paces Team In Receiving Yards
4 years agoNew Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook had a strong game for his team in a 34-23 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Cook was a bright spot in an otherwise sloppy day for the offense, as he caught five of seven targets for a game-high 80 receiving yards, including a big 46-yard reception. The 33-year-old finished second to only Alvin Kamara in targets and seemed to pick up where he left off last year as a big-play threat. Cook is probably not going to consistently see this kind of volume, especially considering Michael Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders were barely involved in the game plan. Still, he's in a good position to build on this effort in Week 2 against his former team, the Raiders.
