Both running back Dalvin Cook and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins are still two free agents looking for new homes in the NFL. It would be stunning to see them land on the same team, but that's a possibility Cook is not going to have a problem with at all.

Prior to his release from the Vikings, Dalvin Cook rushed for at least 1,000 yards in each of the last four seasons. Hopkins, on the other hand, recorded 2,696 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns on 221 receptions in 35 games with the Arizona Cardinals.
