Running back Dalvin Cook is still up for grabs, as he still has to find a landing spot after his shocking release from the Minnesota Vikings. The New York Jets are among the teams linked to Cook, who can certainly make their attack even more explosive. For Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson, it would be a very welcome development for New York if Cook becomes his teammate, but also said that it will always be up to the Jets' front office to pursue a weapon like that, per Rich Cimini of ESPN.

The Jets still have Breece Hall and Michael Carter in the running back room, but that group can definitely be shored up by adding someone like Dalvin Cook, who is a proven asset in the backfield.

Garrett Wilson and everyone who knows football are aware of the abilities of Cook to make things happen on the field, which is also why teams must be salivating over the prospect of adding him to their fold. While Cook remains unsigned, it should not take too long before he finally finds a new home.
