Omarion Cooper is a defensive back who has not played this season; the last season with a stat line was 2025, at Memphis.
Cooper moves between deep coverage and the slot. The five seasons span three programs and three head coaches: Mike Norvell, Deion Sanders and Ryan Silverfield.

39 tackles. 6 passes defended. 1 interception. 1 TFL.
Counts only, never a rate — splash-event sample sizes this small (interceptions, pass breakups, TFL) are noise as a rate and signal only as a tally.
