4 landing spots for WR Amari Cooper if Cowboys cut him

2. Washington ___

It’s a toss-up between what is sadder… how poorly Washington did this year as an organization or the fact that they still don’t have a name. While you never want to see a player on your team go to a rival, Washington could use a serious boost. Luckily for them, they have over $37 million to spend in cap space.

First of all, we have no idea who the QB of this team will be. There were four different players who suited up for Washington this year. Ryan Fitzpatrick is running out of “Fitzmagic” at his age and Taylor Heinicke wasn’t reliable. Washington will likely draft a new QB and hope to sign someone relatively cheap in the meantime.

Regardless, whoever is at the helm will need people to throw to. Right now, it seems like Terry McLaurin is the only guy Washington can count on. Even so, he had a better 2020 than he did in 2021 in all major stat categories. Regardless, he will be a big piece of the pie next season for the “team.”

Curtis Samuel signed a lofty 3 year, $34.5 million deal in March of 2021 and was a complete and total disappointment. Thanks to being on the IR for most of the year, Samuel had zero touchdowns and 27 yards in five games played. Right now, the franchise doesn’t even know if he is worth what they paid because they barely got to see him play.

Adam Humphries is a free agent and likely wants out of Washington badly. This organization cannot have one decent wide receiver. But if you throw both McLaurin and Cooper out there, you could give this team some power it desperately needs. And, they can afford him. Plus, Washington was one of the only teams besides Dallas who was interested in Cooper when he became a free agent in 2020. Will they seal the deal if they get another chance?
