Dallas Cowboys sign RB Dalvin Cook to practice squad

Jerry Jones comments on his success as a GM

Good Day and FOX 4 Sports anchor Mike Doocy chat about the comments Jerry Jones recently made regarding his success as a general manager. Doocy says he may not necessarily be the best GM in the NFL, but he is the best promoter.

FRISCO, Texas - The Dallas Cowboys signed veteran running back Dalvin Cook to their practice squad on Wednesday, according to his agency.

Cook played in a limited role for the New York Jets last year. He played in 15 games and put up 214 yards on 67 carries in 2023.

The Jets released Cook in January, and he signed with the Ravens, playing in the playoffs.

It's safe to say Cook's best years are behind him, but he did make the Pro Bowl every year from 2019 to 2022.

According to the NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Cook was limited last year after undergoing shoulder surgery and the running back "feels the best he has in years."

Cook can be called up to the 53-man roster and play Week 1 if the Cowboys decide to do so.

The veteran joins a running back room that may not be done making additions.

Ezekiel Elliott is widely expected to be the team's starter, with Rico Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn and fullback Hunter Luepke also expected to get work.

The Cowboys open the regular season against the Cleveland Browns on Sept. 8.
