Since the 2021 season, the outside linebacker leads all Broncos players in sacks and sack yards and is second in tackles for loss. This season he has 5 1/2 sacks.
Defensive coordinator Vance Joseph recently praised Cooper, saying "his energy, his toughness and his focus is always on point," attributes he said force teammates to "match his intensity."
On Monday night, teammate Justin Strnad said Cooper "has been a great leader for us."
"I'm really happy see him get paid and live out his dream," Strnad said.
