Dallas Cowboys Sign Dalvin Cook to Roster

The Dallas Cowboys have signed former Pro Bowl running back Dalvin Cook as part of a significant overhaul to their running back room ahead of the 2024 NFL season. Cook joins Ezekiel Elliott, Rico Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn, and fullback Hunter Luepke, as the team looks to boost its backfield after the departure of Tony Pollard. Cook, who had a disappointing season with the New York Jets, aims to revive his career in Dallas, bringing over 6,200 rushing yards and a history of Pro Bowl selections. The Cowboys' strategy of relying on veteran running backs raises questions about their confidence in the current roster. This move follows a trend of the Cowboys not drafting a running back, opting instead for experienced players to enhance their offense. Additionally, the Cowboys avoided a potential setback by not signing former Packers running back AJ Dillon, who is now out for the season due to injury.
