Brandon Beane defended the trade for Amari Cooper, but ultimately, the production was not there for the veteran wide receiver.

Cooper is now set to hit free agency, and there’s a chance the two sides look to continue their partnership. According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Bills have been happy with Cooper’s presence in the locker room, and they’re “intrigued” by the idea of giving the receiver a full offseason to click with Josh Allen.

The Bills Bills also shed some light on the injury that sidelined the veteran soon after he got to Orchard Park.

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.
