Catches five passes in loss
Cook brought in all five of his targets for 54 yards in the Saints' 26-20 overtime wild-card loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: As expected, Cook was one of Drew Brees' primary targets in Sunday's loss, though he failed to find the end zone or break off any long gainers. The South Carolina product will head into his 12th year looking to build on a highly productive first season with New Orleans that saw him grab a career-high nine touchdowns.

Scores in victory
Cook brought in both of his targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 42-10 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook added yet another touchdown to his 2019 campaign, bringing his season total to a career-high nine. In his first year with New Orleans, the 11-year vet racked up 705 yards on 43 receptions, good for 16.4 yards per catch -- a career high.

Hangs pair of scores on former team
Cook corralled three of four targets for 84 yards and two touchdowns in the Saints' 38-28 win over the Titans on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook crushed his former team with a pair of scores and a healthy receiving total Sunday, adding to his late-season charge and setting a new career high in touchdowns. In nine games played since Week 5, Cook has racked up 33 receptions for 571 yards and eight touchdowns, establishing himself as a weekly top-12 play at his position. Cook will have one more shot to add to his touchdown total when the Saints travel to Carolina in Week 17.

Catches four passes in win
Cook brought in all four of his targets for 54 yards in the Saints' 34-7 win over the Colts on Monday.
Analysis: Though he didn't reach the end zone, Cook produced a solid receiving line in Monday's demolition of the Colts. Cook has seen his receptions and receiving yards diminish significantly from his big 2018 campaign in Oakland, though he's already matched his season high in touchdowns (six) with two games left on the schedule -- including a Week 16 meeting with another of his former teams, the Titans.

Does not carry injury status
Cook (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's contest against the Colts, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.
Analysis: This echoes the information head coach Sean Payton provided earlier in the afternoon, all but confirming Cook's availability for the prime-time affair. Following the team's Week 9 bye, Cook has been one of the Saints' leading weapons, tallying 19 receptions, 355 yards and four touchdowns over the five-game stretch.

Expected to play
Cook (concussion) is expected to play Monday against the Colts, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: While the Saints have yet to release their final injury report, it seems likely Cook will either earn a questionable tag or be cleared outright, as head coach Sean Payton seemed nearly certain his tight end would be available. Considering Cook was able to fully practice Friday, barring an extreme setback it seems likely the 32-year-old will be available Monday.

Cook (concussion) was a full participant in practice Friday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Cook took a step forward from Thursday's limited practice, upgrading to full participation just five days after he suffered a concussion in Sunday's 48-46 loss to the 49ers. The tight end will have an extra day to exit the concussion protocol before his Week 15 matchup, with the Saints hosting the Colts on Monday.

Starts week with limited practice
Cook (concussion) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: It's the best the Saints could have hoped for after the tight end suffered a head injury during last week's 48-46 loss to the 49ers. Cook has already taken a big step toward getting back on the field, and he'll have an extra day to recover as the Saints prepare for a Monday matchup with the Colts. That said, there's never any guarantee when it comes to the timeline for recovering from a concussion.

Sustains concussion Sunday
Cook suffered a concussion during Sunday's contest against the 49ers, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: On his second touchdown catch of the first quarter, Cook took a hit to the head from San Francisco cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon. Cook made a brief visit to the sideline tent and then went to the locker room, after which the concussion was confirmed. While Cook will be subject to the protocol for head injuries in order to be cleared for game action, the Saints are down to one TE (Josh Hill) on the 53-man roster.

Under evaluation for head injury
Cook is under evaluation for a concussion suffered during Sunday's game against the 49ers, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Cook recorded touchdown grabs on both of the Saints' first two drives, but on the second occasion, he took a hit to the head from 49ers cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon. If he's eventually diagnosed with a concussion, the Saints will be left with just one healthy TE (Josh Hill) on the game-day roster.

Leads team in receiving
Cook caught three of six targets for 85 yards in the Saints' 26-18 win over the Falcons on Thursday.
Analysis: The day could have been even bigger had he not dropped a would-be touchdown in the end zone. Despite the miscue, Cook paced the team in receiving yards and had another solid game. His late-season surge continues, as Cook has now averaged 73 yards over his past four contests, including two touchdowns in that span. Even against a tough 49ers defense, Cook looks like a solid fantasy option in Week 14.

Continues midseason surge
Cook caught six of eight targets for 99 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 34-31 win against the Panthers.
Analysis: The 32-year-old tight end finds himself amid a midseason renaissance, having accounted for 70-plus receiving yards or a touchdown in five consecutive games. Cook got off to an ice-cold start to the season with eight combined catches for 90 yards and zero touchdowns Weeks 1 through 4, but as the campaign has progressed, he's seen a higher percentage of offensive opportunities -- as exhibited by his per-game target share enhancing to 5.8 over his past six games, compared to just four targets per…read more

Makes touchdown grab in Week 11 win
Cook secured both of his targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 34-17 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook came down with a hard-fought three-yard touchdown reception just past the midway point of the second quarter, his third score of the season. The veteran tight end has notched all of them in the last four games, so he's seemingly carving out more of a niche in the offense as the season unfolds. Cook remains a solid complementary target in the Saints' passing attack heading into a Week 12 divisional battle against the Panthers.

Targeted 10 times in Week 10 loss
Cook recorded six catches for 74 receiving yards on 10 targets during Sunday's 26-9 loss to the Falcons.
Analysis: Returning from an ankle injury that withheld him from New Orleans' games against Chicago and Arizona prior to the Week 9 bye, Cook resumed his recent streak of fantasy utility. Since averaging a meager two catches and 22.5 receiving yards per game between Weeks 1 and 4, Cook has logged more than four receptions and 50 receiving yards per game over his past three games, with both of his touchdown scores on the year coming during that span. Upcoming next, the veteran Cook will be facing off…read more

No limitations in practice
Cook (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Cook missed New Orleans' last two contests, but he appears to have managed a full recovery during the team's bye. The veteran tight end stands to reclaim his starting role Sunday versus the Falcons. Given that Cook has yet to surpass 50 receiving yards in a game this season and has only scored twice, he won't be easy to trust for fantasy purposes despite a favorable matchup.

Ruled out again
Cook (ankle) will not play in Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Unable to practice throughout the week, Cook will now miss a second straight game. Josh Hill played 68 percent of snaps on offense in last week's 36-25 win over Chicago, with Dan Arnold chipping in 24 percent and fullback Zach Line (36 percent) handling his largest share of the season.

Cook (ankle) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Cook has yet to practice since putting up a 3-37-1 line on three targets in Jacksonville in Week 6. As a result, he's in danger of missing his second consecutive game Sunday against the Cardinals. Fortunately for the veteran tight end, the Saints' bye week is next up on the team's schedule.

Analysis: Cook didn't practice at all this week, leaving Josh Hill as the Saints' top option at tight end, followed by Brian Parker. With Alvin Kamara (ankle/knee) and Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) also ruled out, Teddy Bridgewater is looking at a serious challenge against a top-notch defense.

Still not practicing
Cook (ankle) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Cook has been idle for both of the Saints' practices this week after coming out of the Week 6 win over the Jaguars with an ankle injury in tow. The Saints will likely need to see Cook put in at least a limited practice Friday to feel good about his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Bears. Josh Hill is the next man up on the depth chart at tight end but doesn't offer as much upside in the passing game as Cook.

Starts week as DNP
Cook (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Cook appears to have picked up an ankle injury Week 6 versus the Jaguars. The veteran tight end still has two more days to get onto the practice field in some capacity, though for the time being his chances of suiting up Week 7 are looking murky at best. Alvin Kamara (ankle/knee) and Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) were also unable to practice Wednesday, making it conceivable that Teddy Bridgewater could be forced to operate without a plethora of his top weapons Sunday against the Bears.

Gets into end zone again
Cook secured all three of his targets for 37 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 13-6 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook secured a four-yard touchdown throw from Teddy Bridgewater early in the fourth quarter to snap a 6-6 tie and give the Saints a lead they wouldn't relinquish. The veteran tight end has started to pick up the pace of late after a frustrating first four weeks of the season, finding the end zone in two straight games. The 32-year-old will look to extend his touchdown streak against the Bears in Week 7.

First touchdown of season in win
Cook secured four of six targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 31-24 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook finally got into the end zone for the first time in a Saints uniform, hauling in a nine-yard scoring throw from Teddy Bridgewater just before halftime to snap a 10-10 tie. The veteran tight end's reception and receiving yardage totals were also season bests, and he's now logged a solid 12 targets from Bridgewater over his last two games. Cook will look to build on the strong showing versus the Jaguars in a Week 6 road tilt.

Low production once again
Cook caught three passes (six targets) for 21 yards in Sunday's 12-10 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: It was another disappointing week for Cook, who has failed to top 37 yards or score a touchdown through four games. The big-play tight end has the ability to post huge fantasy numbers, but it would be hard to trust him following a rough four-week start, especially while Drew Brees (thumb) is sidelined.

Uninvolved in win
Cook brought in one of two targets for seven yards in the Saints' 33-27 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook's quiet game brought his receiving total to five catches for 69 yards on the season. After a breakout campaign with Oakland just a season ago, Cook's role has been minimal with New Orleans, and he's been deployed as a third or fourth option at best. He's failed to bring in more than two receptions or eclipse 37 yards through three games, and he has yet to score a touchdown. Cook can be left safely out of starting lineups.

Makes pair of grabs in loss
Cook brought in two of seven targets for 25 yards in the Saints' 27-9 loss to the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook's catch rate was highly inefficient, but the fact he spent most of his afternoon on the receiving end of throws from Teddy Bridgewater instead of Drew Brees (hand) certainly had a part to play, as did the fact the latter suffered his one interception of the day on a pass intended for the veteran tight end.

Goes for 37 yards in Saints debut
Cook brought in both of his targets for 37 yards in the Saints' 30-28 win over the Texans on Monday.
Analysis: Cook had a quiet night Monday, seeing just two looks in the game. His long gainer was a 31-yard catch-and-run when he broke free on man-to-man coverage, but he was otherwise invisible. Playing alongside target hogs Michael Thomas (13) and Alvin Kamara (eight) will make it difficult for Cook to have a consistent weekly role, though his upside is undeniable playing with Drew Brees.

Misses Saturday's game
Cook didn't suit up for Saturday's preseason contest against the Jets, Herbie Teope of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Veterans are often held out of exhibition action, even one on a new team like Cook. Making the decision easier was the fact he logged his first catch as a Saint last Sunday. However, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic noted that Cook was gimpy in the first part of Thursday's practice, and while he fit in some reps afterward, he was unable to complete the session. The nature of any health concern is unknown, but if that is indeed the case then Cook is likely sitting out more as a precaution than…read more

Makes first catch of preseason
Cook caught one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's preseason win over the Chargers.
Analysis: It wasn't much, but the grab was Cook's first catch as a Saint after he sat out the team's opener against the Vikings. The veteran tight end is coming off the best season of his career in Oakland, and while the New Orleans offense hasn't produced a big fantasy campaign from a tight end since Ben Watson in 2015, Cook's size, skills and athleticism should make him an attractive target for Drew Brees.

Gets top billing on depth chart
Cook is listed as the No. 1 tight end on the Saints' initial depth chart of training camp, Jeff Duncan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Cook has been a member of the Saints for just four-and-a-half months, and he's already built a notable rapport with veteran signal-caller Drew Brees, making numerous highlight catches in camp. Cook's presence will help to keep opposing defenses honest in an offense that features Brees, Michael Thomas and Alvin Kamara. The latter duo should scoop a majority of looks from Brees, but a productive campaign from Cook is possible after he posted a 68-896-6 line on 101 targets with the Raiders in 2018.

Building chemistry
Cook is receiving increased looks from Drew Brees in training camp with Michael Thomas (contract dispute) holding out, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Cook signed with the Saints in May and appears to be making the most of his increased reps with Brees. The veteran tight end is coming off a stellar season in Oakland, in which he notched career highs in catches (68), yards (896) and touchdowns (6). Cook stands to play a big role in New Orleans' receiving game in 2019 if he and Brees are able to establish solid chemistry before Week 1.

Coach Sean Payton said Tuesday that Cook has signed with the Saints, Rod Walker of The New Orleans Advocate reports.
Analysis: The deal has been in the works since last week, but neither team nor player had confirmed the signing prior to Payton's comment Tuesday morning. Coming off the best statistical year of his career, Cook will head to New Orleans for his age-32 season, presumably serving as the third or fourth option in a passing attack led by future Hall of Famer Drew Brees.

Likely headed to New Orleans
Cook is expected to sign with the Saints, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Cook left New Orleans unsigned after visiting with the team last week. While it isn't clear if the tight end has visited other potential suitors since then, it's becoming clear the tight end has decided on the Saints to continue his playing career. Should Cook ultimately put pen to paper, he'll provide Drew Brees with a nice upgrade at the tight end position -- at least from a receiving perspective.

Remains unsigned
Cook remains unsigned after visiting with the Saints last week, Sheil Kapadia of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: While no other visits have been reported, Cook surely is drawing interest from multiple teams as the top tight end on the market. A return to Oakland also would make sense given that the Raiders haven't lined up a replacement. Heading into his age-32 season, Cook should sign a contract soon enough.

Meeting with Saints
Cook will visit with the Saints on Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Cook proved that he had plenty to give in two campaigns with the Raiders. Overall, he totaled 122 catches (on 187 targets) for 1,584 yards and eight touchdowns in 32 games. Tight end is a need in New Orleans following the retirement of Ben Watson, so if Cook does land a contract in the coming days, the soon-to-be 32-year-old would benefit in the upgrade from Derek Carr to Drew Brees.

Raiders coach Jon Gruden said he would like to re-sign Cook this offseason, Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Cook caught 68 of 101 targets for 896 yards and six touchdowns in 2018, producing his second-best mark for yards per target (8.9) in addition to career-high counting stats across the board.

Cook caught three of five targets for 28 yards during Sunday's 35-3 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Cook was unable to take advantage of what should have been a pass-friendly game flow for the Raiders after they fell behind by three scores early. The tight end posted three or less receptions in each of the team's last three games of the season after back-to-back seven-catch, 100-plus-yard efforts in Weeks 13 and 14.

Cook (ribs) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Analysis: Cook, who was limited at practice all week, has logged back-to-back subpar efforts. Prior to that, though, he recorded seven receptions twice in a row. After catching a fantasy-friendly 65 passes for 868 yards and six TDs in 15 games to date, the tight end profiles as a bounce-back candidate Week 17, assuming his rib issue isn't a major hindrance.

Remains limited at practice
Cook (ribs) remained limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Back-to-back practices -- albeit in a limited fashion -- would seem to pave the way for Cook to suit up for Sunday's season finale against the Chiefs. We'll revisit the tight end's status Friday to see if he's listed as questionable for that contest, or is removed from Oakland's Week 17 injury report altogether.

Limited by rib injury
Cook was limited at practice Wednesday due to a rib injury, Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Cook's limitations come after he played 34 of the Raiders' 62 offensive snaps in Monday's 27-14 win over the Broncos, during which he hauled in two of three targets for 20 yards. He's logged back-to-back quiet efforts, but prior to that, Cook reeled in seven passes twice in a row. He'll be a bounce-back candidate in Week 17 against the Chiefs, assuming the rib issue doesn't provide too many complications.

Limited in Week 16
Cook corralled two of three targets for 20 receiving yards during Monday's 27-14 win against the Broncos.
Analysis: In two outings against Denver this season, Cook has averaged three receptions for 34.5 yards per game with zero touchdowns, compared to 4.5 catches and 61.5 yards per game with six TDs against all other opponents. Despite a current two-game slump in which he's managed a measly 43 combined yards on four receptions, 2018 has been a breakout campaign for the 10th-year player. Cook entered Week 16 having tripled his touchdown output of a season ago, while ranking as TE5 in PPR and standard scoring…read more

Underwhelming in loss
Cook caught two passes for 23 yards on five targets during Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Cook came crashing back to earth Sunday with a lackluster two-catch performance after combining for 14 receptions and 216 receiving yards in the Raiders' previous two games. Game flow should have aided in Cook's potential volume as the Raiders fell behind, 17-0, in the first half, but the tight end was still unable to rack up a meaningful stat line. The 31-year-old will look to get back on track Week 16 against the Broncos on Monday night.

Another productive effort in win
Cook brought in seven of 10 targets for 116 yards in the Raiders' 24-21 win over the Steelers on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook paced the Raiders in receptions, receiving yards and targets, putting together his second consecutive 100-yard effort. The 10-year pro continues to be a favorite target of Derek Carr all over the field, and the chief blemish on his performance Sunday was that he saw his three-game touchdown streak come to an end. Cook will look to continue his stellar late-season production versus the Bengals in Week 15.

Hits century mark, scores in win
Cook caught seven of eight targets, collecting 100 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 40-33 loss to Oakland.
Analysis: With another stellar showing Sunday, the 10-year veteran eclipsed 100 receiving yards for the third time this season but for just the first time in his past eight outings (averaged 34.1 YPG between Weeks 5 and 12). Cook has proven to be a lethal red-zone threat of late as well, with a touchdown reception in three straight appearances, as well as four scores over the past six games. Week 14 brings a matchup against a Steelers defense that's been below-average at defending tight ends this year,…read more

Scores for second straight game
Cook caught two of five targets for 32 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Derek Carr threw way behind Cook on a pass up the sideline late in the third quarter. It was fine: The athletic tight end stuck out his paw, palmed the pass and hauled it in for a 16-yard touchdown, putting the game to within a score. The Raiders have mostly endured an ugly season, particularly as of late, but Cook is as valuable of any of the team's targets. The Raiders have just six passing touchdowns over the past five weeks, Cook has three of them. Expect him to be counted on next Sunday…read more

Scores in Week 11 victory
Cook corralled three of six targets, putting up 31 receiving yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 23-21 win against Arizona.
Analysis: The veteran tight end clinched his second receiving score over Oakland's past four games -- and his fourth touchdown of the season -- with a 23-yard catch from Derek Carr on Oakland's third play from scrimmage. Cook has cooled off after a roaring first quarter to the regular season (370 yards and two touchdowns through Week 4), averaging 3.2 catches and fewer than 35 yards per game in six outings since. Week 12 brings a matchup against a Ravens defense that's been exposed in allowing 54 catches…read more

Leads team in targets during defeat
Cook caught four of nine targets for 52 yards in Sunday's 20-6 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Cook has seen his production drop off immensely after what was a torrid start to the season by his standards. He entered the week with three games of 20 yards or fewer in his last four and seemed headed towards a similar fate in this one when he saw just two targets and recorded no catches in the first half. After hauling in four of his seven second-half targets to salvage his day, perhaps the Raiders will look to the 31-year-old more frequently starting Week 11 at Arizona.

Limited to two receptions
Cook brought in both of his targets for 20 yards in the Raiders' 34-3 loss to the 49ers on Thursday.
Analysis: It was a positively pedestrian night for the Raiders' passing attack overall, and Cook's production suffered as a result. The veteran tight end has certainly proven capable of the occasional explosive outing this season, but his week-to-week upside remains partly capped by the inconsistent play under center. Cook now has a pair of two-catch tallies over his last three games, and he'll look to up his numbers versus the Chargers in a Week 10 divisional battle.
