The Dallas Cowboys are considering activating Dalvin Cook from the practice squad to improve their struggling run game, which ranks 25th in the NFL with just 170 rushing yards through two games.
ESPN’s Dan Graziano reported that while the team has been relying on Ezekiel Elliott and Rico Dowdle, Cook could be a solution if production doesn’t improve, especially after the upcoming game against the Ravens. Cook, a four-time Pro Bowl running back, has been with the Cowboys since late August, getting acclimated with the team.
The Dallas Cowboys have struggled with their run game this season, managing just one rushing touchdown and their longest rush (12 yards) coming from wide receiver CeeDee Lamb. Rico Dowdle and Ezekiel Elliott have each recorded 56 rushing yards, but the team is looking for a spark. Dalvin Cook, who joined the Cowboys’ practice squad in late August, may provide that.
Cook has expressed his enthusiasm about helping the team and learning from the Cowboys’ running back group. His activation could be a key move if the rushing issues persist.
