Daquan Cooper brings veteran ballhawk energy to Wagner’s secondary
In the 2014 season, Daquan Cooper was a steady, physical defensive back for Wagner, logging 16 tackles and a forced fumble in four games before a season-ending leg injury, then being projected as a top secondary leader once recovered. He stood out for versatility, contributing both at defensive back and as a kick returner, which adds value beyond simple coverage stats. The big reason to care: when healthy, he looked like an experienced, high-intensity playmaker with proven toughness and leadership traits that fit a defense needing reliability and edge.
