The season didn’t go as the Cleveland Browns had planned and they had to make some tough decisions due to it. One of those decisions was trading WR Amari Cooper to the Buffalo Bills ahead of the trade deadline.

The Buffalo Bills are "intrigued" by the idea of bringing back wide receiver Amari Cooper for a full season with Josh Allen, according to ESPN's

Some fans have wondered about Amari Cooper’s involvement in Bills offense. Cooper has “absolutely no complaints.” “Winning is way more important & that’s all I truly want.

The Buffalo Bills’ trade with the Cleveland Browns on Oct. 15 put a five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver into the AFC contender’s lineup. But other than a six-catch, 95-yard performance against the Los Angeles Rams on Dec. 8, Amari Cooper’s contributions haven’t matched his resume.

Amari Cooper's half-season stint in Buffalo didn’t necessarily go as planned. After being shipped from the Browns to the Bills in October, the veteran wideout was limited to only 20 receptions and a career-worst 37.
