Cooper was waived by the Jets on Friday, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cooper, signed by the Jets in 2017 after being cut by the 49ers, didn't show enough to make the final 53-man roster. The fourth-year veteran will attempt to sign elsewhere in the league as a depth option up front.

Cooper re-signed with the Jets on Monday, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.

Cooper signed with the Jets on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cooper was waived by the 49ers a week ago but it didn't take him long to find a new home in the NFL. The defensive lineman played in five games this season for San Francisco, posting seven tackles and a half sick in that time. With the Jets dealing with several injuries on the defensive line, Cooper will be brought in to add some insurance to the unit.

The 49ers waived Cooper on Tuesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cooper appeared in five games and logged seven tackles and a half sack for the 49ers, who picked him up on a waiver claim before the season. With bolstering their pass rush on the edge a greater need, however, the 49ers deemed Cooper expendable after signing defensive end Datone Jones in a corresponding move.

EDGE Analysis
Cooper likely won't carve out a big role in his first several weeks with his new team, but don't be surprised if the 24-year-old is a piece of the San Francisco defensive puzzle by the end of the season.
