According to Archer, Cook will be on the team's practice squad.

A day after visiting with the Cowboys, veteran RB Dalvin Cook is signing with the club's practice squad, according to sources. Tuesday's workout went well and Cook was in good shape. He can be called up from the PS and play Week 1 if needed.

On Tuesday, it was reported that Cook was meeting with the franchise, and the former Minnesota Vikings star posted a workout clip showing that he still has the looks of a dominant backfield star.

Now, it seems that the marriage is actually official.

From 2019 to 2022, Cook had a dominant run with the Vikings, even if injuries plagued him from being 100 percent. In that stretch, Cook rushed for over 1,000 yards in each season and earned a Pro Bowl selection for each of those seasons as well.

However, 2022 is a long time ago when it comes to being a running back in the NFL.

Can Cook reignite the flame and become a massive asset for the Cowboys? Everyone will know soon enough.
