MANKATO, Minn. – Dalvin Cook was a stud on the football field at Florida State, but he’s not too macho to pose with a Disney’s Moana backpack.

Following Wednesday afternoon’s practice session, Cook – along with other rookie teammates – connected with 11 young people between the ages of 6 and 12. Cook handed the backpack to a young girl wearing a Vikings jersey, and she smiled from ear-to-ear. When he knelt next to her for a photo, the grin somehow grew.

It was the second time the running back had been photographed with the flowery book bag.
