Cook tallied two solo tackles and an interception during Monday's 26-13 win over the Saints. All of Cook's stats came on the Chiefs' first defensive series, which ended when he picked off a Derek Carr pass intended for Rashid Shaheed. It was Cook's first interception since Week 7 of the 2023 campaign. He's up to 26 tackles (21 solo) and four passes defended (one interception) through the first five games of the regular season.
Cook tallied eight tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 22-17 win over Atlanta. Cook tied with Nick Bolton for second-most tackles on Kansas City on Sunday behind Chamarri Conner (10). Cook has played every single defensive snap through the first three games of the regular season and has accumulated 19 tackles (15 solo) and two passes defended.
Cook (ankle) was spotted working with the Chiefs' first-team defense Monday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. 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.
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 then Edwards lateraled it to Cook, who then raced nearly 60 yards into the end zone to make the score 21-0. He is getting steady playing time, but he isn't racking up enough stats to warrant IDP consideration.
