Ezekiel Elliott and a four-time Pro Bowl running back are wanted by the Cowboys.

The seasoned Dalvin Cook has been positioned as a “bargain bin” free agent for the Dallas Cowboys to take into consideration. The squad may still use some more juice in the rushing game.

Following Tony Pollard’s free agency departure, the Cowboys made little offseason additions to strengthen their backfield. Ezekiel Elliott returned to the Cowboys, but he’s not quite the same rusher he was in his rookie season. Royce Freeman, 28, was also added, although he is by no means a main back. Deuce Vaughn and Rico Dowdle will also be participating.

Cook is available and might be had for a “bargain bin” price, according to Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report.

“Dallas should think about testing out four-time Pro Bowler Dalvin Cook right away, even if it might wait until the last roster cuts to add someone to the position.

Cook may have more energy than he has in a while after playing little last season, but there is definitely no assurance that he can regain his Pro Bowl form. Signing Cook should be more beneficial than risky, especially considering that he might have to show himself again on a low-paying “prove-it” contract.

Cook is not far from being a talented player in the Pro Bowl. In2022, he gained 1,173 yards and 8 touchdowns while rushing. He had trouble last season, though.

Cook, who ran for 214 yards on just 67 rushes over 15 games, was unable to see action while playing for the New York Jets. After being released, he later signed with the Baltimore Ravens. Only eight carries for 23 yards were all he got in the postseason.

Last season, Cook was a player on a $7 million, one-year contract. The Cowboys could get him now for less money and bolster their running back group with an eager veteran.
