Vikings' Dalvin Cook (hamstring) to sit out vs. Bills

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook and defensive end Everson Griffen will both be out for Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills, coach Mike Zimmer announced Friday.

Cook suffered a hamstring injury during Sunday's tie against the Packers, while Griffen has a knee injury and hasn't practiced all week.

Running back Latavius Murray, who has rushed for 61 yards on 15 attempts this season, likely will get a heavy workload against the Bills on Sunday. Murray rushed for 842 yards and eight touchdowns in 2017.

Cook, a second-round pick in 2017, has rushed for 78 yards on 26 attempts in the first two games of the season.
