3 years agoMinnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (ankle) will not play during the Week 5 matchup against Detroit. The 26-year-old has been dealing with a nagging ankle issue for weeks now, and he didn't play in Week 3. He managed to suit up in Week 4, although it was in a limited capacity. Nonetheless, without Cook in the lineup, Alexander Mattison will likely handle most of the work out of the backfield, and based on his productivity over the last few games, he should be considered a must-start in all formats.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller
