No injury tag
Cook (ankle) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Cook suffered an ankle injury during last week's loss to the Cowboys and only played 12 defensive snaps as a result. However, it appears this injury won't be an issue moving forward. Cook has been a steady member of the Chiefs' secondary with 50 tackles (33 solo) and four pass breakups through 12 games.

Avoids high-ankle sprain
Cook, who sustained an ankle injury in Thursday's 31-28 loss to the Cowboys, avoided a high-ankle sprain, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Despite the encouraging injury update, the Chiefs are likely to proceed cautiously with Cook given his significant ankle injury in 2023, which sidelined him for the final nine games of the season. He's appeared in all 12 of Kansas City's contests this year, recording 50 total tackles and four passes defensed. If inactive for the Week 14 matchup against the Texans, Jaden Hicks will likely to step in and start at free safety.

Three tackles in opener
Cook recorded three tackles in Friday's 27-21 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Cook played a decreased role late in the 2024 season, raising some questions about his usage to begin 2025. While it wasn't an excellent statistical performance, Cook was clearly Kansas City's primary free safety and played all 65 defensive snaps. Cook should have the chance to be more productive moving forward.

He logged 13 tackles (11 solo) and one pass breakup, including an interception, during the postseason, picking off Jalen Hurts in the Super Bowl. Cook is set to head into the final year of his rookie contract in 2025.

Past ankle issue
Cook (ankle) was spotted working with the Chiefs' first-team defense Monday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Analysis: The 2022 second-round pick out of Cincinnati sustained a season-ending ankle injury during Kansas City's Week 13 loss to the Packers, but it now seems as if he's moved past the issue. Cook started all 12 games he appeared in last season, recording 42 total tackles and two passes defended, including one interception. The 24-year-old is expected to remain one of the Chiefs' top safeties heading into their 2024 campaign.

Unlikely to play Saturday
Coach Andy Reid said Tuesday that he does not expect Cook (ankle) to return from Kansas City's injured reserve list for the wild-card round, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Cook appears to be on track to miss his sixth consecutive game due to an ankle sprain he sustained in Week 13 at Green Bay. In that case, Mike Edwards would project to make another start at safety.

Lands on IR
The Chiefs placed Cook (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: Cook sustained an ankle injury in Week 13 against the Packers. He managed to avoid a fracture but was unable to practice this week and is now set to sit out for at least the next four games while on IR. The earliest Cook can return would be Week 18 against the Chargers on Jan. 7. The 2022 second-round pick has 42 tackles (26 solo), one interception, two forced fumbles and a defensive touchdown through 12 games this season.

Won't play Week 14
Cook (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Analysis: The second-year safety out of Cincinnati was held out of practice all week after suffering an ankle injury in Week 13, so it's no surprise that he'll be inactive Sunday. With Cook missing Week 14, expect veteran Mike Edwards to assume the Chiefs' starting free safety duties.

Hurts ankle on SNF
Cook (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Packers.
Analysis: Cook was carted off after suffering what looked like a gruesome ankle injury at first glance. It's encouraging that the safety wasn't immediately ruled out, but it would be surprising if Cook managed to return Sunday. With Cook hurt, Mike Edwards will likely take on a larger role.

Scores touchdown in Frankfurt
Cook recorded four tackles (two solo) and a fumble return for a touchdown in Sunday's 21-14 win over Miami.
Analysis: With less than a minute to play in the first half, Cook became the beneficiary of a wild play in which Trent McDuffie stripped Tyreek Hill behind the line of scrimmage, Mike Edwards recovered the ball and lateraled it to Cook, who then raced nearly 60 yards into the end zone to make the score 21-0. Cook is getting steady playing time, but despite Sunday's production, he isn't racking up enough stats to warrant IDP consideration.

Analysis: Cook, a rookie second-round pick, has handled a depth role in the Kansas City secondary this season, appearing in five games while logging 10 tackles across 87 snaps on defense.
