Former NFL wide receiver Plaxico Burress said on The Carton Show, which airs each day on FS1, that Dalvin Cook is going to sign with either the Miami Dolphins or the Dallas Cowboys and that the NY Jets are out of contention for his services. Last Sunday, Cook spent time in NY at the Jets headquarters and met with the Jets front office and coaching staff on a free agent visit. There have been conflicting reports out that Miami has made Cook an offer already, and the news of the Cowboys being in the mix is really the first we have heard them mentioned as a possible suitor for the superstar free-agent running back.
Craig Carton was the first to report a week ago that Cook was flying up to NY for a visit, and he had that report 24 hours before the rest of the media then started reporting it.
uh oh – @plaxicoburress just said on @TheCartonShow that Dalvin Cook is going to the Cowboys or Dolphins and the Jets are out –

More on this story as it develops
Who in the right mind wants a running back going into a 7th year who wants a lot of money to be on their team? Let him go to Dallas the dolphins don’t need him. He’s going to get hurt he’s not going to be able to finish the season just stay away from him.
And for all of his bs about wanting to do something for Miami because it’s its home town, sure didn’t seem to matter when he went to Florida State. So I washed my hands of this moron a long time ago.
I don’t get why some people are hammering Dalvin Cook. After all running back regardless of who they are have an average career of like 3 years, and the backs that are fortunate enough to be blessed to Play longer than that, are the exception and not the rule. Saying that, I understand the frustration, I’ve been a phin phan for over 45 years, just don’t begrudge Cook and his chance to get the most Dollars he can, to provide for his family. Career’s as I said earlier can be extremely short.
