Report: Cook shows a lot of interest in signing with Super Bowl LVIII contenders
Dalvin Cook is still considered as one of the best running backs in the league. Unfortunately, his time with the Vikings came to an end this year, as the team wanted to save some money by releasing him.
According to reports, several teams are interested in signing the former Florida State player. He is seeking a lucrative deal, and not all the clubs pursuing him will be able to fulfil his salary expectations.
Cook, 27, is taking his time to make a decision about his future. He intends to wait for other players like Saquon Barkley or Josh Jacobs to sign deals so that he can negotiate for a comparable contract, aiming for a similar compensation as these fellow running backs.
However, money is not everything Cook is looking for. The running back wants to play for a Super Bowl contender to be able to compete for the Vince Lombardi trophy, and it seems like he has selected his favorite landing spot.
ESPN’s Diana Russini tweeted a video of Mike Greenberg discussing Dalvin Cook, whom he believes would be an ideal fit for the New York Jets alongside DeAndre Hopkins. In response to the post, the running back referred to the analyst as a smart person, which clearly alludes to his interest in the AFC East team.
