Jared Cook Ruled Out Against Lions
4 years agoNew Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook (groin) and offensive guard Andrus Peat (ankle) have been ruled out for Week 4 against the Lions. With both Cook and All-Pro wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) out this Sunday, the Saints offense will be at much less than full strength. Expect quarterback Drew Brees to check down often to running back Alvin Kamara again, while wideout Emmanuel Sanders will be in play as a WR4/flex in deeper leagues. Expect Josh Hill and rookie Adam Trautman to split repetitions at the tight end position with Cook inactive. Hill will likely see more targets, but he'd be a desperation tight end play in the deepest of leagues.
