PHILADELPHIA — The best training camp practice of Darius Cooper’s career came Monday. Jalen Hurts found him all over the field — deep down the sideline, across the middle, in traffic, making adjustments on the ball. Without any context, one would have thought Cooper was already a regular starter with the franchise quarterback.Kennady, Darius’ wife, needed to work that morning. She could not attend her husband’s standout session.“How was practice?” she asked him later that night.“It’s great,” he responded, “but there are some things I can work on.”Cooper, the second-year wide receiver, does not have a social media account. He’s not reading The Athletic’s practice observations. He’s not tuned into podcasts or talk radio. What he failed to realize is that his practice session had gone viral among ardent Philadelphia Eagles followers.Kennady already knew.“Unless you’re here, you don’t get the full story because he’s so humble and he’s always working to get better,” Kennady said after practice Thursday. “So I’m not sure exactly how it went, but from the reports I heard, it was a great day.”“When someone says to Darius, ‘Wow, man, you had a great camp day,’ Darius always says, ‘I could have done better’,” explained Veronica Watkins, Darius’ mother. “He’s always looking to improve himself.”Could Philadelphia Eagles be NFL's top defense in 2026?Derrik KlassenCooper stood with his mother and his wife after practice Thursday with a mango water ice in his left hand and his shoulder pads on the ground beside him. His shoulder appeared unburdened in this moment, three weeks into a standout training camp, but you wouldn’t know it from hearing him speak.Or his wife speak.Or his mother speak.Once an undrafted rookie from Tarelton State, always an undrafted rookie from Tarelton State.
