Last year, CeeDee Lamb was the top wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboys. This offseason, the team added another weapon in Brandin Cooks, but it doesn’t sound like there will be bad blood or competition between the two elite receivers.
During an appearance on Adam Schefter’s podcast this week, Brandin Cooks made it clear that he’s coming to Dallas “to just help,” saying that there’s “no ego” involved.
“CeeDee, you’re talking about a guy that’s been electric since the moment he stepped into this league but you at last year what he did to really just go into that mode of a true No. 1 receiver,” Cooks said on Adam Schefter’s podcast according to the Dallas Morning News. “I’ve got a lot of respect for his game from afar and I hit him up and was like, ‘Look, I’m coming to just help.’ Like, there’s no ego. And same thing with Michael Gallup. And then you talk about Dak, his competitive nature, the way that he goes about his work, you hear about it from teammates or ex-teammates, the way that he carries himself, I’m truly excited to be able to play with a guy that who is hungry to get better.”
We’ll have to see how the new-look Dallas Cowboys receiving corps looks next season.
