Running back Dalvin Cook will make his Dallas Cowboys debut Sunday when he is activated from the practice squad for a road game against the San Francisco 49ers, NFL Network reported Saturday.

Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy revealed this week that the four-time Pro Bowl selection was close to being active after he signed with the practice squad Aug. 28.

Cook, 29, has rushed for 6,207 yards and 47 touchdowns in 88 NFL games (73 starts) over seven seasons since being a second-round draft pick by the Minnesota Vikings in 2017. He also has 236 receptions for 1,872 yards and five scores.

Cook enjoyed four consecutive 1,000-yard seasons on the ground for the Vikings from 2019-22 before he underwent shoulder surgery. He established career highs of 1,557 rushing yards and 16 scores on the ground in just 14 games (all starts) in 2020.

Minnesota released Cook in June 2023, and he had a disappointing 15-game run for the New York Jets last season. He rushed for just 214 yards before being let go in early January.

The Baltimore Ravens picked up Cook, and he rushed for 23 yards on eight carries during a playoff victory over the Houston Texans. He didn’t play in the following week’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game.
