Will Dalvin Cook Play vs. Falcons? Cowboys’ Latest Roster Moves Ahead of Week 9 Game

The have elevated Dalvin Cook from the practice squad, setting up a potential appearance against the Falcons this Sunday. As per NFL insider Ian Rapoport, this is Cook's second game with Dallas after debuting last week against the 49ers. With Rico Dowdle returning from an illness, it's uncertain how involved Cook will be in the Cowboys' offensive game plan. Last week, he ranked third in snaps behind Ezekiel Elliott and Hunter Luepke, managing only 22 yards from seven touches.

Cook, a former second-round pick by the Vikings, has journeyed across multiple teams since his release from Minnesota. Following a stint with the Jets, he briefly joined the Ravens' practice squad during the playoffs before landing with Dallas. Despite his reputation as a former Pro Bowl back, Cook's role for Week 9 remains uncertain, but fans can expect him to bring added depth to the Cowboys' backfield against Atlanta.
