‘It’s like a snowball effect’

WR Amari Cooper also added to the history books, eclipsing 10,000 yards in his career.

“It’s a huge milestone, that’s kind of the floor of the conversation of a Hall of Fame receiver, once a receiver crosses that 10,000-yard mark, everything else is like gravy on top, but that’s where the conversations start, and that’s always been a goal of mine,” Cooper said. “I obviously have a long way to go, but I’m just looking forward to continuing to make plays, continuing to catch the ball, continuing to make plays for my team.”

WR Tyrell Shavers also made his first catch of his career in the fourth quarter, and he took it to the end zone for a 69-yard touchdown.

“They called the play, we’re on the side like, ‘Oh, snap, Shave’s gonna get his first touch,’ and take it 69 yards to the house. Just the joy on everyone’s faces,” Shakir said. “It shows like, the love and team chemistry that we have for each other. We enjoy when every single person goes out there and balls out and for that to happen to him, somebody who’s just put his head down went to work… He deserves it. He goes to work, doesn’t say a word, doesn’t complain and obviously takes advantage when his number’s called.”
