Injured Vikings running back Dalvin Cook gets full work load

Dalvin Cook ran without limitations during Sunday's 20-7 win against the Lions, less than a week after the running back was knocked from the Vikings' loss in Seattle due to a painful shoulder injury through which he has vowed to play.

After 20 touches on 32 snaps, Cook took a seat at the end of the third quarter and watched backups Alexander Mattison and Mike Boone close the game. Cook finished with 75 yards from scrimmage and a rushing touchdown — his 13th of the season.

Most importantly, Cook said he escaped Sunday without further damage.

"Yeah, I'm good," Cook said.
