Report: Vikings' Dalvin Cook Expected to Miss Next 2 Games with Hamstring Injury

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook is reportedly set to sit out three more weeks—games against the New Orleans Saints and Detroit Lions and the team's bye—with a lingering hamstring injury.

Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com provided the update Wednesday.

The Vikings selected Cook in the second round of the 2017 draft. While he's flashed high-end potential when healthy, averaging 4.8 yards per attempt during his rookie season, he's struggled to stay on the field because of injuries.

The 23-year-old Florida State product played just four games last year before suffering a torn ACL that landed him on injured reserve.
