Many Dallas Cowboys fans were upset by the news Thursday afternoon that star running back Dalvin Cook was signing with the Baltimore Ravens. The Cowboys and Ravens were listed as two probable teams to sign Cook after he parted ways with the Jets following Week 17.
Cook didn’t receive many carries for the Jets this season after they added him to pair with Aaron Rodgers. Following Rodgers’ Achilles injury, Cook requested a trade because of his limited use in the Jets’ offense. He received no carries in the Jets’ Week 17 loss to the Cleveland Browns.
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy praised Cook Wednesday. He said the Cowboys would “visit” on the idea of adding Cook to their roster before the playoffs. McCarthy’s comments came on the same day Cowboys running back Tony Pollard said he hadn’t met his expectations this season.

Cowboys and NFL fans responded on social media to the news of Cook’s signing. Fans commented on the Cowboys and owner Jerry Jones allowing the Ravens to scoop up a potential game-changer for the postseason.

Why can’t Jerry Jones sign a significant player.
Easy answer = Doesn’t really care about winning it all.#DallasCowboys #DalvinCook— DOC (@Bluestar1227) January 4, 2024
Ravens beat the Cowboys to Dalvin Cook. 🤬 You can tell which teams have all the pieces and are in “WIN NOW” mode.
Dallas can only go so far with a mid running game. The signing would’ve been perfect, they’re just never aggressive 🤦🏾♂️
