Vikings concerned Dalvin Cook has torn ACL in knee

The Minnesota Vikings are concerned that star rookie running back Dalvin Cook may have a season-ending torn ACL knee injury.

After losing 14-7 to the Detroit Lions on Sunday, Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer said Cook would go for an MRI, but the team suspected he had a torn ACL.

Cook was on crutches and had a big brace on his leg after the game.

Cook had rushed for 66 yards on 13 carries and scored Minnesota’s lone touchdown before leaving on a non-contact play. Players getting hurt on non-contact plays typically are bad signs about the extent of the issue.

The rookie second-round pick entered the game with 288 rushing yards and 82 receiving yards in three games.
