Groin injury
This is what makes the most logical sense. From what I’m hearing everything is leaning this way for Dalvin Cook in Week 6, meaning Alexander Mattison would get the nod in his place. Would give Cook two weeks to recover ahead of Green Bay in Week 8. (Courtney Cronin on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: It appears Cook’s groin injury is minor but it won’t be a surprise if the Viking hold him out in Week 6 considering they have a bye in Week 7. Alexander Mattison would get the start and be an immediate RB1 against the Falcons soft defense. Mike Boone would play in a backup role
