Held to two catches Cox caught two passes for 27 yards Saturday against Sam Houston.

Impact Cox missed last week's game with an injury, so maybe he wasn't at full speed in this one. To that end, he was only targeted four times, which is a season low for him.

Good to go Saturday Cox is off the injury report ahead of Saturday's game versus Sam Houston.

Impact Cox, who missed Week 12 due to an undisclosed injury, is off the injury report and will be available for Saturday's contest. He's caught 38 passes (on 70 targets) for 446 yards and five touchdowns so far this season, so his return will be a welcome one.

Impact Concerning 2025, Saturday includes Cox's first DNP. Middle Tenn. St's aforementioned year features his 38 receptions for 446 yards and five touchdowns, so him out is significant.

Held to 12 yards Cox had four catches for 12 yards against Missouri State on Wednesday.

Strong season continues Cox caught four passes for 77 yards versus Kennesaw State on Saturday.

Impact Cox now has 24 catches for 341 yards and four touchdowns through five games. The only reason for concern is that at some point Nicholas Vattiato might lose the starting quarterback gig, and whoever steps in might not have the same connection with Cox.

Impact Cox has been a silver lining here early in 2025 in what seems likely to be a lost season for the Blue Raiders. Through two games he has nine catches for 125 yards and two touchdowns, and doing this on the road against Wisconsin is impressive. The matchups get easier from here.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Catches two TDs Cox caught six passes for 50 yards and two scores against Austin Peay on Saturday.
