The Dallas Cowboys hosted veteran free agent running back Dalvin Cook for a meeting this week as the team trimmed its roster to 53 men.

Cook went undrafted, and the Cowboys opted to put Ezekiel Elliott, Rico Dowdle and Deuce Vaughn on the 53-man roster. Still, things didn’t go too badly for Cook when he met with Dallas’ leadership.

According to Clarence Hill of AllDLLS.com, Cook is in “good condition.”

There is also a possibility that the Cowboys could be interested in Cook in the future, but that would come with one stipulation. Cook would have to be a member of the practice squad for the time being.

Cook is scheduled to visit the Indianapolis Colts later this week to discuss his options in depth, so it will be interesting to see if he ends up knocking on the Cowboys’ door.

However, that seems unlikely.

Cook held off on signing a deal because he believes he can still help a team win, and he wouldn’t do that on the practice squad.

The veteran running back, who played under Mike Zimmer with the Minnesota Vikings, still believes he has something left in him despite a disappointing 2023 season with the New York Jets.

How will it all play out? Only time will tell, but for now, Cowboys fans don’t have to worry about another aging, high-mileage running back joining the backfield.
