Vikings' Dalvin Cook says he is feeling good after two weeks off
Running back Dalvin Cook said two weeks of additional rest has him feeling good ahead of his return from injury for Sunday's NFC wild-card playoff game at New Orleans.
Cook said he has been "putting the time in" to be healthy enough for Sunday after coach Mike Zimmer chose to rest him against the Packers and Bears. He will play through right chest and left shoulder injuries against the Saints, whom Cook didn't get the chance to face as a rookie during 2017's "Minneapolis Miracle" game in the NFC divisional round.
"Now I'm here," Cook said. "Now it's time to win some games."
