OTF Premium Derrek Cooper Update

Derrek Cooper Update 

The latest on the freshman running back headed into the day. 

Cooper was on the field for practice Tuesday, but very limited. 

The training staff had him doing some light jogging on Tuesday. 

Cooper is doing everything he can to try and be available for the game Saturday. Cooper's availability for Ohio State remains up in the air. 

OTF will provide an update later today if there is one.

So no high ankle sprain?

[AJJ_Sports]

If it’s a high ankle sprain why don’t we just rest him and try to get him as healthy as possible for sec play ?

Because it's not

[Guts]

This is great news. He will be back sooner rather than later it seems. 

[ShinerRyan]

I hope he plays but even if he doesn't, I like that that he's out there a little. Any word on who the 3rd back is if he doesn't play? Simon looked the best of the backups to me.

There are grades of high ankle sprains.

Noticed you said yesterday his family may not come now. Whether he plays or not hope his family decides to come anyway. I totally understand if not, hey people have jobs and stuff lol. But just for the atmosphere it would still be a great trip.

I said "several people close to Cooper". Those people are rescheduling to another game later in the season after the injury and unknown status.

I don't know if his mom is attending. Haven't seen here miss anything before!
