What happened: New York Jets rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. hauled in a 60-yard pass from quarterback Geno Smith on Sunday to eclipse 100 receiving yards for a second consecutive week.

Why it matters: The stretch follows Cooper catching his first career NFL touchdown in his Week 7 return after returning to full practice Oct. 16. His emergence as a vertical threat gives Smith a consistent downfield target after the pair began building chemistry in July camp.

By the numbers: Cooper has logged two consecutive 100-yard receiving games, a 60-yard reception and his first career touchdown across his two appearances since returning to the active lineup in Week 7.

What to watch: Cooper projects to remain a primary downfield option for Smith in New York's passing attack heading into next week.
