MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook has been named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week after scoring four touchdowns against the Green Bay Packers.

Cook missed the previous game with a groin injury that had him listed as questionable, but he looked just fine against the Packers’ defense.
