After signing Cooper to the practice squad last Wednesday, Arizona promptly elevated him to the active roster ahead of Sunday's contest against the Chargers. The veteran wideout played exclusively on special teams in the loss, returning one punt for 15 yards and one kickoff for 19 yards. The Cardinals are on bye Week 13, and Cooper's likelihood of being elevated again Week 14 could hinge on the statuses of Greg Dortch (thumb) and Rondale Moore (groin).

Cardinals' Pharoh Cooper: Joins active roster
The Cardinals elevated Cooper from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus the Chargers, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
The journeyman wide receiver finds himself on Arizona's active roster for the third time in his seventh pro season. It remains to be seen if Cooper will be active this weekend, which may depend on whether Greg Dortch (thumb) joins Rondale Moore (groin) on the sideline. If that comes to pass, Cooper and Andre Baccellia would be the candidates to get snaps behind wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins, Marquise Brown, A.J. Green and Robbie Anderson.

The veteran played in eight games with the Giants last season, tallying four receptions on 11 targets for 33 yards and rushing once for three yards.
