Nerdy Football Analysis: Cook was trending toward being active all week, so owners should feel OK about plugging him into their lineups in a game where the Vikings may be relying on his ability to contribute in the passing game in the second half. Peters being active is a bit of a surprise, since it appeared he may have been seriously hurt in Week 3. Peters has not acted as a shadow to this point (and probably won’t despite the absence of Aqib Talib), so Stefon Diggs owners should sweat his matchup.
