And after watching him up close in practice this week, Jerry Jones is thrilled to have the wide receiver on the team.

“He’s been as advertised with his conscientiousness, how he approaches his work ethic,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Friday during his weekly appearance on 105.3 The Fan. “And, of course, he has unique skills.”

The Cowboys hope Cooper will help a passing game that entered the Week 8 bye week ranked 29th in the league.

“As a kid, I got to see and was on the freshman team (At Arkansas) with Lance Alworth. He was voted as one of the one or two best receivers in the AFL. Alworth was just poetry when he ran. He was as smooth as you can be and of course, he was blazing fast. He had amazing skills to go with the fact that he was a good football player. You can get in trouble comparing (Cooper to Alworth) but as Barry Switzer once said, the way I evaluate players is I compare them to the great ones I’ve been around.”

Keep in mind Jerry Jones is the same man who compared Dak Prescott to Cam Newton and Jared Goff.

Always take anything Jerry Jones says with a grain of salt.
