Dalvin Cook

Returning sooner than anticipated, Cook exceeded tame playing-time estimations by collecting 109 yards on 14 touches and 28 snaps. He even set the season's fastest speed (22.07 MPH) by a ball carrier on his 70-yard run. His role should expand following a Week 10 bye, but Minnesota returns to face Chicago's second-ranked rushing defense, which has allowed an NFL-low 10.5 fantasy points per game to opposing running backs. While Cook may earn an RB1 distinction before the season concludes, the matchup and proximity to a hamstring injury hinder him to a borderline top-15 choice.

Dalvin Cook 'full-go'

Dalvin Cook is currently "full-go" coming off the team's bye week. He was previously dealing with a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact

Cook returned with authority prior to the bye, and with this report it wouldn't be surprising to see him handle a large majority of the team's carries against Chicago. While he's an RB2 in a difficult matchup with the Bears, he's one you can feel a bit more confident about given these glowing reports.
