The winless Minnesota Vikings still plan to ride Dalvin Cook in Week 3 against the Seattle Seahawks despite a right ankle injury.

Mike Zimmer classified the injury as a "little sprain."

"You know, at this stage, it's time to get some wins," Zimmer said. "Dalvin's a tough guy. If he can't play, there's a reason why he's not playing. But he makes us go, so we're going to continue to play him."

Cook was injured with 9:52 remaining in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss to the Arizona Cardinals when he was tackled low by J.J. Watt. The running back sported an Ace bandage on his right ankle during media availability Wednesday, and did not participate in practice.

Heading into his second season with the Buffalo Bills, Stefon Diggs looked back at how things ended with the Minnesota Vikings.

Diggs acknowledged that it was fair to call him a bad teammate late in his time in Minnesota, before the Vikings traded him to the Bills in March of 2020.

"Coming from my old team — I hate talking about old stuff — but up to me wanting to leave and go to another place, I was a good teammate," Diggs said.

"It wasn't until I wanted to do something else is when I became a bad teammate. So as far as when things are going good, it's all good until it's not good. So for me, even then, I always tried to play with a chip on my shoulder and lead my team the best way I know how. Coming here I had a fresh start. It was fair for people to make their assumptions or their assessments from the outside looking in. That’s fair. I just look at it as, when I get there I’ll show them who I am and we’ll go from there. As far as my new chapter with my new team, things are going pretty good."

Brian O'Neill has agreed to a five-year, $92.5 million contract extension.

O'Neill was the 30th ranked tackle in the NFL in 2020 according to Pro Football Focus.

The Vikings selected O'Neill with the 62nd pick in the 2018 draft.
