Vikings RB Dalvin Cook wins second FedEx Ground award

Dalvin Cook has been a massive asset for the Minnesota Vikings this season. Through seven weeks, the running back is leading the league in rushing and has been a major factor in the outcome of every game.

In one of his best performances so far, Cook ran for a league-leading 142 yards on 25 rushing attempts (5.7 yards per carry) and a pair of touchdowns against the Detroit Lions in Week 7, earning him a nomination for FedEx Ground Player of the Week.

Well, the fans have spoken and Cook has brought home his second Ground Player of the Week for the 2019 NFL season, making him the only rusher so far to get more than one award.
