Vikings RB Dalvin Cook not expected to play

Dalvin Cook isn’t expected to play this Sunday against the Falcons after suffering an adductor strain, according to a source.

Related players: Alexander Mattison

Fantasy Impact: 

While Cook was only a question mark on Monday, it shouldn't be a surprise the team will sit him this week. As we talked about on Monday, the Vikings have a bye in Week 6 so the hope is to get Cook a couple of weeks rest before hopefully returning to action in Week 7. Mattison looks to at least be a one-week starter for the Vikings in a nice matchup. In limited time Mattison finished with over 100 yards rushing filling in for Cook last week after he left the game.
