KJ Cooper gives Texas Southern a dual-threat spark
In the 2025 season, KJ Cooper was Texas Southern’s offense engine, throwing for 1,626 yards, 13 touchdowns and 6 interceptions while adding 292 rushing yards and 4 scores, a blend of efficiency and mobility that makes him more than a pocket passer[4][6]. He’s a fit for teams that value a quarterback who can extend plays, stress defenses with his legs, and keep the offense on schedule without needing a huge volume of throws. The question isn’t talent—it’s whether your system wants a crafty dual-threat with real production and toughness.
