Though Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper hurt his knee in last week's practice and jammed it into the turf in Monday's win over the New York Giants, he is expected to play in Week 10 vs. Minnesota, according to Todd Archer of ESPN. However, he did not practice in Wednesday's jog through. Nonetheless, that should not impact his availability.

Cooper took himself out of Monday's win early. He did so after catching a pass and quickly stumbling onto the turf at MetLife Stadium because he said his knee locked up.

“It was the same thing,” Cooper said on the matter, via Mac Engel of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “When I hurt it in practice, I was not able to finish practice. It was kind of a weird thing. I was just playing with my knee trying to get it to unlock, or whatever it was that was causing the pain. And it got better as the game went on.”

Cooper insists that his injury is nothing to worry about. In fact, he came back in the game and caught a 45-yard touchdown pass thrown by Dak Prescott. He finished the win with four receptions for 80 yards and a touchdown.

Do not expect Cooper to practice much during the week. However, that should not impact his ability to play in the game. Historically, Cooper has played through injuries without complaint. Considering the Cowboys need him to continue their stronghold on the NFC East, the superstar will be available on Sunday.
