Don’t bother clearing room in your trophy cabinets, rookies: Amari Cooper has the Offensive Rookie of the Year award locked up.
The Oakland Raiders wide receiver left his mark in a divisional game against the San Diego Chargers on Sunday with a 52-yard touchdown reception. More impressive than the crooked-numbered score, though, was how he got there.

That was sixth-year safety Jimmy Wilson that Cooper juked. We’re hoping his ankles are OK, though his dignity certainly took a hit.
Cooper’s score at the time put the Raiders on top 30-3.
