Sports Illustrated's Mike Fisher reports Amari Cooper will be "cutting it close" to start training camp as he recovers from ankle surgery.
Cooper, who didn't participate in the team's offseason practices after undergoing foot/ankle surgery in January, isn't behind schedule, but could conceivably miss the first days of Cowboys training camp, which starts July 22. Dallas head coach Mike McCarthy said in early June that Cooper is "still working through" his recovery process. His status will be worth monitoring in the final weeks of July and into the preseason. Cooper led the Cowboys last year with 92 receptions for 1,114 yards and five touchdowns, dominating targets in Dak Prescott's four full games. His average draft position -- nearly identical to teammate CeeDee Lamb's -- could dip if he's limited or held out of training camp. Lamb's ADP would probably rise considerably.
