One of the great storylines to start the 2019 season has been Vikings running back Dalvin Cook.
Cook continued that on Sunday against the Raiders, running for 110 yards on just 16 carries to go with a touchdown.
It marks Cook’s third-straight 100-yard game to open the season, and he now has an NFL-leading 375 rushing yards to go with four touchdowns on the young season.
This has been the discussion all offseason. What could a healthy Cook bring the Vikings? Considering he missed 17 of 32 games to start his career, this was a valid question.
Well, it turns out he can be one of the best running backs in the entire NFL.
If Cook can stay healthy, he’ll be setting career highs in rushing yards and touchdowns in 2019.
Cook and the Vikings will have their hands full in Week 4 as they travel to play the Bears in Chicago. The Bears (who have yet to play in Week 3) rank sixth in the league against the rush.
