Cooper is a redshirt freshman that the Tigers acquired from Ohio State via the transfer portal. Cooper did not catch a pass during his time in Columbus.
Cooper suffered a lower leg injury recently in camp.
Maclin is also a redshirt freshman for the Tigers. He suffered a broken foreman at practice earlier this August.
