Get to know new wide receiver Pharoh Cooper

[Sir Purr]

The story behind the name


Pharoh isn't exactly a common name, but it's definitely a cool one. Yet the story behind Cooper's first name is fairly simple.


After Cooper's mother named her first child, it was his father's turn when the second came around. So dad settled on Pharoh. Why? Because it's a powerful name.


Since then, Cooper has fully embraced the title, donning a tattoo of the Egyptian ruler King Tut on his right calf and sporting a golden King Tut chain. Plus, his Twitter handle combines his Egyptian-inspired name with his passion for football: @KingTutt_chdown.
