As New York Jets fans are aware, the team’s Dalvin Cook experiment has not gone too well. Nine games into the season, Cook is yet to score a touchdown or register a run of more than 10 yards.
Accordingly, the team has gradually decreased Cook’s playing time. Over his past four games, Cook is averaging 8.5 offensive snaps and 3.8 carries per game. He hasn’t received more than four carries in a game since Week 5. The Jets seemed to be admitting they whiffed on Cook.
But Robert Saleh‘s recent comments suggest Cook’s role may be taking a turn.
