Vikings RB Dalvin Cook suffers groin injury

Vikings running back Dalvin Cook left Sunday night’s game with a groin injury, and right now the team doesn’t know how long he’ll be out.

Related players: Alexander Mattison, Mike Boone

Fantasy Impact:

Cook will have an MRI today and it’s unclear whether he’ll play Sunday’s home game against the Falcons, Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said. Cook did play one more snap after leaving with the injury. Mattison came in and had 20 carries for 112 yards. Mattison is likely to get plenty of work again this week if Cook can’t go so hopefully Cook owners have Mattison tucked away on their bench. Mattison will be a major target on the wire this week. Boone could also see some time if Cook is out.

Vikings RB Alexander Mattison (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17. The game is meaningless for the Vikings so until he's active, we're assuming Mattison sits another week.

Vikings RBs Cook, Mattison both limited Thursday

Minnesota Vikings

Dec 26, 2019 · 8:18 PM EST

Vikings RBs Dalvin Cook (chest) and Alexander Mattison (ankle) were limited in Thursday's practice.

Fantasy Impact:

Thursday was the first full practice of the week after a walkthrough on Wednesday for the Vikings. There's a good chance neither plays, however. The Vikings are locked into the No. 6 seed in the NFC playoffs, so the team is likely to let both backs rest and prepare for the Wild Card game, which could possibly be on Saturday. Mike Boone would be the lead back again but owners are likely to shy away from him after he disappointed many folks on Monday night with his disappearing act against the Packers.

Vikings RB Alexander Mattison (ankle) missed practice again Friday. With both Dalvin Cook and Alexander Mattison sidelined for the Vikings' first two practices of the week, Mike Boone is a must-add for the final. If they're out, Boone should see 15-20 touches against a generous Green Bay rush defense. For what it's worth, Mike Zimmer is being coy about both players and suggested that Mattison has a "good chance" to suit up. Even if he does, and Cook sits, Boone could end up with 15+ touches.

Dalvin Cook out, Alexander Mattison questionable for Monday night

Minnesota Vikings

Dec 21, 2019 · 6:00 PM EST

Vikings RB Dalvin Cook (chest) is ruled out and Alexander Mattison (ankle) is questionable for Monday night against the Packers.

Fantasy Impact:

Cook did not practice all week, but Mattison was testing his ankle in drills Saturday. It’s shaping up to be a true game-time decision on Mattison. If he can’t go, Mike Boone has a chance to be this year’s unlikely fantasy championship hero.

Dalvin Cook, Alexander Mattison both miss practice Friday

Minnesota Vikings

Dec 20, 2019 · 3:21 PM EST

Vikings RBs Dalvin Cook (chest) and Alexander Mattison (ankle) both missed practice again on Friday.

Fantasy Impact:

It's looking unlikely either will play on Monday, opening the door for Mike Boone, who scored two touchdowns after Cook exited the game in Week 15. Boone is looking like an unlikely fantasy championship hero for Week 16, as he is now in line for a big workload. He's right on the cusp of an RB2-level play this week. Check the Saturday report for the official word on the running backs.
