Born in Zagreb, Ćosić came through the youth ranks and started his professional career at NK Inter Zaprešić. A former youth international, he made his first-team and Prva HNL debut on 23 July 2011 in a 2–0 away loss to GNK Dinamo Zagreb, coming in the 77th minute for Stjepan Babić.[2] Nevertheless, he continued on playing for the U-19 team, featuring only sporadically, until the club's relegation to the Druga HNL in the summer of 2013 when he became a first-team regular. His team achieved promotion after two seasons, and during the following 2015–16 Prva HNL season Ćosić was the team captain.
On 16 June 2016, Ćosić made a transfer to Hajduk Split for an undisclosed fee.[3] Ćosić picked the number 44 kit. Ćosić made his Hajduk debut in a 2–2 away draw against CSMS Iași in the second round of 2016–17 UEFA Europa League qualifying, playing the full 90 minutes.[4] Ćosić scored his first Hajduk goal in the 3rd round of 2016–17 UEFA Europa League qualifying, scoring the first in a 3–0 win over FC Oleksandriya at CSC Nika Stadium.[5]
Ćosić signed with Slovenian PrvaLiga club NK Rudar Velenje on 23 January 2019 until June 2020.[6]
