Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook suffered a shoulder injury Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers and will not return.
Cook exited after nine carries for 27 yards on the day. The running back was listed on the injury report with a chest injury, but fully practiced on Wednesday and Thursday.
Cook finally produced the breakout season the Vikings have expected since they selected him in the second round of the 2017 NFL draft. He topped 1,000 rushing yards for the first time after recording just 969 yards on the ground in 15 combined games over his first two seasons.
