Report: Raiders' Cooper suffered sprained ankle on concussion play
Cary Edmondson / USA TODAY Sports
It appears Oakland Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper is dealing with more than just a concussion following Sunday's victory over the Denver Broncos.
A source told Adam Schefter of NFL Network the 23-year-old suffered a sprained ankle along with the concussion after a scary hit that forced him to leave the game early.
In order to be ready for the Raiders' upcoming game against the New York Giants, he'll need to both clear the concussion protocol and have his ankle heal.
Cooper has experienced an up-and-down season thus far, hauling in just 42 catches for 499 yards and five touchdowns.
