Broncos Not Expected To Go After Dalvin CookJune 06, 2023 | 03:02 PM

Despite cutting three running backs on the roster in the last week, the Denver Broncos aren't expected to make a run at Minnesota Vikings RB Dalvin Cook, according to sources. There's no way the Broncos trade for Cook, at least not without a restructured contract. Cook is scheduled to make $11 million in 2023 with a salary cap hit of $14.01 million. Denver only has $11.7 million in cap space. The team has also traded away too many draft picks in the last two years and don't even have a second-rounder in 2024. If Cook is outright released by the Vikes, then there's more of a chance the Broncos will express interest, but it's not guaranteed. The 27-year-old had his fourth straight 1,000-yard rushing season in 2022, but he's entering the age of decline at his position. Cook's fantasy value will continue to plummet in offseason drafts until his 2023 picture is more clear.
