Cook (illness) cleared league protocols Wednesday and will be available for Sunday's game in Green Bay, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cook thus figures to return to his lead role in the Minnesota backfield after missing Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Rams. Some players have seen reduced workloads in their first game back from a bout with COVID-19, but Cook's return to practice early in the week helps his odds of avoiding that outcome. He initially was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list last Thursday.
