Vikings’ Dalvin Cook Ruled Out For Sunday’s Game Against Falcons

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minnesota Vikings’ star running back Dalvin Cook — who also leads the NFL in rushing — has been ruled out for Sunday’s game.

Cook suffered a groin injury last Sunday in the team’s game against the Seattle Seahawks and has missed practice all week. On Friday, the team confirmed that he’ll be sitting out this Sunday.
