Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook already has a few accolades.
The 25-year-old is a two-time Pro Bowler with the Vikings. Last season, in 14 games with the Vikings, he had a career-high 1,557 yards rushing and four total touchdowns. In college at Florida State, he played in the 2014 College Football Playoff and was first-team All-American and All-ACC twice in his three seasons with the Seminoles.
Now Cook can add one more thing to his list of accomplishments: He is a college graduate. He completed his degree with a Bachelor’s of Science in interdisciplinary studies and public policy. Since training camp is going on in Minnesota, Cook could not be in Tallahassee, Florida, for the ceremony. Instead, he celebrated at home.
