The Minnesota Vikings have informed running back Dalvin Cook that they plan to release him, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Thursday.
The Vikings were expected to try to trade Cook one more time Thursday, but now plan to process his release Friday, according to a source. It will bring an end to Cook's six-year tenure in Minnesota.
The Miami Dolphins are expected to have an interest in signing Cook once he is released, sources told Schefter.
Cook, who turns 28 in August, was set to take up $14.
