Vikings Running back, Dalvin Cook, dislocated his shoulder during the devastating loss against the San Francisco 49ers.
It seems Cook is expected to miss out on the next two games against the Lions and the Steelers.
However, Viking’s coach, Mike Zimmer, tells reporters that Cook looks to be day to day on whether or not he will play.
After a big hit by the 49ers defense, Cook ended up fumbling the ball after he felt instant pain from the tackle. He was later carted off after the play and did not see any action in the fourth quarter.
It is unclear what Cook’s true status is but be on the look out for potential running backs to pick up in fantasy for the next one to two weeks.
