It doesn’t mean going out and having a few drinks; but, rather, getting input from Watson on what he looks for in a receiver. This aspect of chemistry building can still be realized, especially with the help of video conferencing.

“From this time when we’re doing Zoom meetings, asking Deshaun what he’s looking for, what does he like to see from his receivers, what is he seeing in this defense and the way that he likes to throw things,” said Cooks. “We’ll still be able to do that from that aspect.”

Cooks has played with Drew Brees, Tom Brady, and Jared Goff, all of whom have at least reached the Super Bowl. The 5-10, 183-pound wideout knows what it takes to build chemistry from working with some of the best of the past 20 years.
