Dalvin Cook being waived by the Jets with 1 game left in the season

Associated Press  

The New York Jets are waiving running back Dalvin Cook before the final game of the season, according to Cook’s agents LAA Sports & Entertainment. After Aaron Rodgers was lost for the season with a torn left Achilles tendon four snaps into his debut with the Jets, Cook’s role in New York’s offense never materialized. “He still has plenty of juice in his legs, but he’s been great.” The star running back was released by Minnesota last offseason for salary cap reasons, then visited the Jets during training camp and considered his options before signing with New York in August. Cook came to the Jets knowing he would be in a stacked running back room that also included the since-released Michael Carter, who’s now on Arizona.
