Dalvin Cook and Cam Akers were stars at FSU, but injuries have made teams weary of signing them so far.
different landing spots for two former Florida State football running backs Dalvin Cook and Cam Akers. Both players have had careers full of highlights with heartbreak in between with injuries becoming setbacks.Kay found the most realistic spot to be Indianapolis for Cook as he could be a serviceable backup to Jonathan Taylor, another player who has battled injuries. Cook most recently had a torn labrum in 2021 and a dislocated shoulder in 2022.
“The Indianapolis Colts could be the right spot for Cook to get back on track. While he'd have no chance of usurping Jonathan Taylor for RB1 duties, Cook could work as a serviceable depth option who can seamlessly step into a feature role if Taylor misses time … Indy has a real need for veteran depth following Zack Moss' departure in free agency. Cook would only need to beat out journeyman Trey Sermon and inexperienced 2023 fifth-round pick Evan Hull to become the Colts; RB2.
“The soon-to-be 25-year-old possesses a rare blend of upside and proven ability that no other available free-agent running back can offer. He'll be worth a dice roll for any team that can spare a roster spot for a high-ceiling backup. The Dallas Cowboys would make sense as a landing spot for Akers after they declined to select any running backs in the 2024 draft.
