Amari Cooper delivers 75-yard bomb as part of monster first half for Cleveland Browns
By Paul Harvey
Published:
Amari Cooper is having a big-time performance for the Cleveland Browns on Christmas Eve. He’s already up over 100 yards against the Houston Texans, and the game has not even hit halftime yet.
Cooper’s biggest highlight of the game came on a huge deep-ball touchdown connection with Joe Flacco. He was left in one-on-one coverage on the outside, and that was a mistake by the Texans.
Flacco gave Cooper a chance to make a play, and the key wide receiver elevated over the coverage for the grab. He hit the sidelines at full speed and rolled all the way for 75 yards and a touchdown.
JOE FLACCO. AMARI COOPER. 75 YARD TD.
This duo is BALLING.

So far, Cooper has 3 catches and has hit 150 yards in the game. As a result, the Browns are up 22-7 against the Texans with halftime quickly approaching. We’ll see how high Cooper can push it and potentially grab another 200-yard game. He has 3 such games in his career but has never reached that mark with the Browns.
