Hamstring still not 100 percent
The plan, as of now, is for Dalvin Cook to play on Sunday. Vikings will have him on a pitch count of 20-25 plays, assuming he goes. Cook said Friday he’s feeling much better, but his hamstring still clearly isn’t 100 percent yet. Still, Vikings are hopeful he can help in a limited capacity. (Ben Goessling on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: This isn’t exactly what fantasy owners want to hear. It might be better for Cook to rest another week and instead of risking re-injury this weekend. It will be difficult to trust Cook in a fantasy lineup given the likelihood of a reduced role. Latavius Murray and Roc Thomas will likely see work as well.
