Dalvin Cook carried the ball 20 times for 90 yards and caught three passes for 18 yards during Minnesota’s 23-7 win over Green Bay.
Fantasy Impact: The 27-year-old back struggled to move the ball in the first half, but he gained more traction in the fourth quarter to help seal the win. Though he didn’t find the end zone, Green Bay’s run defense is a significant reason. With Justin Jefferson proving unstoppable in the game, Cook took a backseat in the game plan. He remains an elite option at RB, and fantasy managers should expect this type of production weekly. In Week 2, the Vikings face a Philadelphia Eagles defense that allowed 181 yards rushing and three TD to Detroit’s running backs in Week 1. Cook is a clear RB1 heading into that matchup.
