The Minnesota Vikings officially released running back Dalvin Cook on Friday afternoon. The move was a long time coming due to what Cook was expected to make this season on the salary cap.
Even though he was on the decline with his performance and his cap number was so high, Cook will be missed both on and off the field. Head coach Kevin O’Connell, general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and owners Zygi and Mark Wilf all spoke about Cook, his impact and how he will be missed.
