The Facts: The Texans and Cooks are working through process of try to meet his standing trade request and multiple teams in AFC and NFC are interested in the veteran wide receiver, league sources tell KPRC.com's Aaron Wilson.

Diehards Line: Wilson notes that respectful dialogue is ongoing between Cooks, who finished with a team-high 699 yards and three touchdowns in his third season with the club and the team. Remember, Cooks was candid about his future with the franchise as the 2022 season ended. "I'm not going into this offseason thinking I want to be a part of a rebuild," Cooks said after HC Lovie Smith was fired. The biggest holdup that interfered with Cooks being traded was his 2023 contract, which is set to pay him $18 million fully guaranteed. We'll be watching for more on this in coming days.
