Dalvin Cook gets real on his free agency decision
Summer is here, and everyone is eagerly awaiting news from the top available free agents. Dalvin Cook is among them, and the former Minnesota Vikings running back is taking his time to carefully consider offers and choose the best one.
According to reports, the Vikings offered Cook a new deal, but the running back didn’t see it as a good one. That’s why he decided not to continue in Minnesota, leading the team to his release.
“The process is fun. You embrace it,” Cook recently told Fox 9 about the free agency. “If you don’t want to be wanted by people, then something’s wrong. As long as people want me, I’m good. I know I’m in the right spot. But going through this process has been fun. It’s been different every day, waking up with a different schedule. Just enjoying it. I think when it comes down to it, I just make the right decision.”
