Vikings running back Dalvin Cook had himself quite the season in 2020, marking career-highs across the board. Of course, much of that had to do with the fact that Cook was able to stay healthy.
In Pro Football Focus’ top 101 list of players from the 2020 season, Cook ranked 40th.
Here’s what writer Monson wrote about Cook:
A healthy Dalvin Cook is one of the best players in football, and despite missing a couple of games, he was able to rack up 1,557 total rushing yards and 3.3 yards after contact per carry. Cook broke 68 tackles on the ground and generated a 90.0-plus PFF rushing grade. Minnesota’s offensive line is far from great, and few runners are able to generate as much rushing production over what is being created for them by their blocking as Cook over the past few seasons. The 2020 campaign was Dalvin Cook at his best, with the possibility of even more to come if he can stay on the field for a full 16-game slate.
The only running back ahead of Cook was Tennessee’s Derrick Henry at No. 8.
