A few weeks after being drafted by the Green Bay Packers in the second round, former Texas A&M Aggies linebacker Edgerrin Cooper officially inked a contract with the team as a 22-year-old rookie.

If Edgerrin Cooper wasn't paying attention, he might have thought fans were chanting his name after he was taken with the No. 45 overall pick by the Green Bay Packers.

"We were just doing our job," Cooper said after a successful outing against the Auburn Tigers in the Aggies' SEC opener. "That's what coach always says. Don't try to do anything extra. Just do your job. As long as you're doing that, your plays will come to you." That M.O. allowed Cooper to be a standout at Texas A&M, and now, he's set to begin a journey of doing the same in Green Bay. The Packers announced Thursday that they'd officially signed Cooper.
