Replacing Hunter Henry in L.A.
Cook is signing a one-year contract with the Chargers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The deal has a maximum value of $6 million, so the cap hit presumably will be less than that. Cook likely will be the passing-down replacement for Hunter Henry, who played 87 percent of the Chargers' offensive snaps in his 14 games last season. Cook wasn't too far from that type of workload in his two seasons with the Raiders (2017-18), but his snap share dipped to 55 percent and then 46 percent in two years for the Saints. He'll turn 34 in April, joining a team that has only Donald Parham and…read more

Time up in New Orleans
The Saints terminated Cook's contract Wednesday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Cook was bound for free agency this offseason regardless, so cutting him now simply allows the veteran tight end to immediately begin his search for a new home. The 33-year-old had somewhat of a down year in 2020 with a modest 37 catches for 504 yards -- his lowest totals since 2016 -- but he remained effective in the red zone (seven touchdowns). His departure leaves 2020 third-round pick Adam Trautman as the top option on the depth chart for the time being.

Disastrous performance in loss
Cook caught five of seven targets for 28 yards in the Saints' 30-20 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: His final numbers in the box score were nothing to write home about, but his performance on the field was far more disastrous. Cook was the source of two turnovers in this one, fumbling once and letting one of his seven targets bounce off him for a Tampa Bay interception. Set for free agency this year, it's unclear if Cook will be back in New Orleans, especially given the third-round pick the team spent on Adam Trautman in 2020. If this was indeed Cook's last game as a Saint, he leaves the Big…read more

Good to go Sunday
Cook (back) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's playoff game against the Buccaneers after logging a full practice Friday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Cook was listed as limited Wednesday and Thursday, but his return to a full session Friday paves the way for the Saints' top tight end to handle his usual role in Sunday's divisional-round game. In the team's wild-card win over the Bears last weekend, Cook caught four passes on seven targets for 40 yards.

Limited at practice
Cook (back) remained limited Thursday at practice, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Cook showed no sign of any problem in the wild-card win over Chicago, catching four passes for 40 yards on a team-high seven targets. He should be ready for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, though it's possible the Saints list their top tight end on the Friday injury report.

Limited by back injury
Cook was limited at Wednesday's practice with a back injury, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Cook has logged at least 48 percent of the offensive snaps in four of the last five games, during which he accumulated 16 catches (on 25 targets) for 231 yards and touchdowns. That amounts to a healthy 9.2 yards per target, but now a back issue is affecting his practice reps. Cook has two more chances to prove his health ahead of Sunday's divisional-round game versus the Buccaneers.

Four receptions in Sunday's win
Cook corralled four of seven targets for 40 yards in the Saints' 21-9 win over the Bears on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook tied for team lead in targets, but he was only able to turn them into a scoreless 4-40 receiving line. He's remained involved in the offensive game plan of late, but if Cook isn't scoring, he's typically not doing enough to provide more than middling production for fantasy managers. He'll look to improve on this performance next week against Tampa Bay.

Scores seventh TD in victory
Cook caught four of five targets for 43 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 33-7 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Cook finished second on the team in targets and receptions while finishing third in receiving yardage. He got the scoring started with an 18-yard touchdown in the first quarter, taking his impressive total to seven for the season. Cook also finishes the campaign with a modest 37 receptions and 504 yards but could take on a more critical role in the wild-card matchup against the Bears, who have been tough on opposing wideouts but susceptible to tight ends.

Game-long grab in win
Cook brought in three of four targets for 82 yards in the Saints' 52-33 win over the Vikings on Friday.
Analysis: The veteran tight end was just a catch and a yard behind Emmanuel Sanders for the team lead in those categories while also tying Marquez Callaway for second in targets. Cook's 44-yard reception early in the fourth quarter was notably the longest of the game for either team and helped set up Alvin Kamara's fifth touchdown of the contest. Cook also recorded a pair of 19-yard grabs for his other two catches of the afternoon while functioning as more of a downfield threat in the absence of Michael…read more

Scoring streak snapped
Cook secured two of five targets for 29 yards in the Saints' 32-29 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
Analysis: Cook's scoring streak came to an end after two games, and without the score, his day was noticeably disappointing. In stark contrast to his 2019 late-season surge, Cook is on the decline as the 2020 season wanes. He hasn't logged more than three receptions or 37 receiving yards since Week 8, and his fantasy value is highly dependent on scoring. He'll look to find the end zone Week 16, when the Saints face the Vikings on Christmas.

Scores again in loss
Cook caught three of four targets for 37 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: The tight end caught a 20-yard strike from Taysom Hill late in the fourth quarter to bring the Saints to within a field goal, but they couldn't recover the subsequent onside kick. Cook has scored in consecutive games, giving him six TDs on the year, and he may get his number called in the red zone again in Week 15 as New Orleans hosts Patrick Mahomes and the high-octane Kansas City offense.

Rebounds with TD against Falcons
Cook secured three of five targets for 28 receiving yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 21-16 win against Atlanta.
Analysis: The 33-year-old entered Sunday's divisional tilt amidst a dramatic production slump, having posted just one total catch for six yards over his three preceding outings. Cook was held to 30 or fewer receiving yards for a fifth consecutive outing during Week 13, but a second-quarter TD at least gave him a respectable fantasy day among tight ends. Next on the schedule is a road trip to Philadelphia, where Cook will face off against an Eagles defense that ranks fifth worst in the NFL with a 75.3…read more

Blanked in catch department
Cook did not haul in either of his targets during Sunday's 31-3 win against the Broncos.
Analysis: It was a low-volume passing script for the Saints in Week 12, as Denver could muster hardly any offensive momentum with practice squad call-up Kendall Hinton -- and a myriad of Broncos RBs -- taking snaps under center. For the two-time Pro Bowl tight end, his midseason slump continues, as Cook has just one combined catch for six receiving yards over his past three outings after he posted at least two receptions in every one of his appearances Weeks 1 through 9, with an average output of 39.9…read more

Cold streak continues
Cook caught his only target for six yards in the Saints' 24-9 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: The disappointing performance was Cook's third straight dud, as he's now gone just 3-36-0 combined across his last three contests. The matchup with Atlanta seemed like a get-right spot, but a bounceback performance failed to materialize, perhaps due to Taysom Hill being under center instead of Drew Brees (ribs). Cook will be tough to trust as more than a touchdown-dependent fantasy option in Week 12 against Denver.

Donut in Week 10 victory
Cook failed to bring in either of his targets in the Saints' 27-13 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Analysis: New Orleans' passing game was a mess all afternoon, with Drew Brees failing to get much going in the first half and Jameis Winston not faring any better in the second. After scoring in four of his first six games to open the season, Cook has gone ice cold, securing two receptions for 30 yards combined in Weeks 9-10. A matchup with Atlanta's porous secondary offers bounce-back potential for Cook in Week 11.

Quiet in Week 9 victory
Cook caught two of three targets for 30 yards in the Saints' 38-3 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: It was a disappointing day in the box score for Cook, who saw both Josh Hill and Adam Trautman find the end zone, while his own streak of touchdown scoring came to an end. Cook will look to bounce back Week 10 when the Saints face the 49ers.

Scores for third straight game
Cook caught five of seven targets for 51 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-23 overtime win over the Bears.
Analysis: The tight end was second on the Saints in receiving yards behind Alvin Kamara, and Cook found the end zone for the third straight game just before halftime. With the team's receiving corps potentially still depleted in Week 9, he could again see significant volume facing a Buccaneers defense he hauled in a season-high 80 yards against in their first meeting this year.

Back in end zone Week 7
Cook secured three of four targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 27-24 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran tight end was in line for a potentially elevated workload Sunday with both Michael Thomas (ankle/hamstring) and Emmanuel Sanders (illness) out of action, but Cook ultimately logged his second-lowest target tally of the campaign. Fortunately, Cook found the end zone for the second consecutive contest, opening the scoring on the afternoon with an excellent contested catch in the right corner of the end zone to cap off a game-opening 14-play, 75-yard drive.

Cook caught two of three targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 30-27 overtime win against the Chargers.
Analysis: Cook returned from a groin injury to make a huge play Monday, hauling in a 41-yard touchdown to tie the game in the fourth quarter. Although the tight end only caught one other pass, Cook will be pleased by his contribution to his team's victory, and he will now embark on New Orleans' bye week to rest up ahead of Week 7's matchup versus Carolina.

With a bit more time to prepare for Week 5, he was listed as a limited participant on all three injury reports before receiving a 'questionable' tag for this game.

Seemingly available for Monday
Cook (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Chargers, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Cook participated in practice in a limited fashion all week so it seems likely the veteran should be able to return to the field Monday. That thought process was reinforced by Katherine Terrell of The Athletic, although fantasy mangers likely won't know Cook's status for certain until closer to the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. Expect Adam Trautman and Josh Hill to fill the void should Cook surprisingly be listed as inactive for the contest.

Analysis: Cook wasn't able to practice in any capacity this week after exiting in the third quarter of a loss to the Packers on Sunday night. Rookie tight end Adam Trautman played each of the Saints' 12 offensive snaps in the fourth quarter of that game, finishing with two catches for 17 yards on two targets. Veteran tight end Josh Hill could also pick up some of the vacated snaps, but Trautman looks like the better bet to be involved in the passing game.

Cook caught two of five targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 34-24 loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Cook extended New Orleans' first-half lead with a six-yard touchdown on third down during the second quarter. While the tight end used his body well to make that grab, Cook didn't haul in another pass until the Saints' final drive of the game.

Strong performance in Week 1
Cook caught five of seven targets for a team-high 80 yards in Sunday's 34-23 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: The tight end's longest gain of the day came on a rare downfield throw by Drew Brees, as the quarterback found Cook down the left sideline for a 46-yard pass early in the fourth quarter that set up the Saints' final TD. Cook is coming off a season in which he scored nine touchdowns and averaged 10.8 yards per target, both career highs, and he remains a key part of the New Orleans passing game heading into a Week 2 road tilt against the Raiders.

Hopes to build on 2019 success
Cook said that he hopes to improve upon last season's success and make corrections, John DeShazier of NewOrleansSaints.com reports. "There are still some plays on the film that haunt me and of course, we're still going back over those plays, and running through them, but they're still plays that haunt me that I still wish I could have back," Cook said, "So it's still, you know, learning from those, talking through them, getting the report, getting on the same page."
Analysis: Cook had a productive first season in the Big Easy, earning a Pro Bowl nod thanks to a 43/705/9 receiving line. He was particularly effective down the stretch, racking up 537 yards and seven scores from Weeks 10-17. The veteran tight end is optimistic he can be even better in 2020, adding "And, you know, hopefully this season will be a lot different, being that me and Drew do have a full season together and more time.

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.

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.
