A key point, however, is Cook has not logged a reception since the Mississippi State game on September 28th.

In recent weeks we’ve seen a solid rotation of Isaiah Bond (when not hurt), DeAndre Moore, and Matthew Golden. In addition, star freshman Ryan Wingo and senior Silas Bolden have seen their reps increase.

Cook is a promising talent who signed in the 2023 class with much fanfare. The five-star from DeSoto committed the summer heading into his senior year after being a long-time Texas lean. Along with Arch Manning, he was a leading voice in what would ultimately become the No. 3 recruiting class in the country.
