Fans on social media had questions (and answers) after Dalvin Cook was shown drinking something on the bench ahead of the Cowboys ‘Sunday Night Football’ showdown vs. the 49ers this past weekend.
The veteran running back debuted for Dallas on Sunday after making a name for himself Minnesota, where he made four Pro Bowl teams while on the Vikings’ roster.
It was hoped that he would inject some offense, given that the team has had the least effective rushing system in the NFL, though he experienced a significant dip in form after a move to the New York Jets, where he averaged a career-low 3.2 yards per carry.
Cameras caught Cook taking a swig out of a small bottle before kickoff on Sunday night, with one of the commentators claiming he was “getting ready for this one.”
