Professional career

Pre-draft

Cook entered the 2009 NFL draft and attended the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, Indiana. He was projected to be a third round pick by NFL draft experts and scouts. At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, Cook was ranked as the fourth best tight end prospect in the draft by NFL draft analyst Mike Mayock.[4]

Tennessee Titans

2009 season

The Tennessee Titans selected Cook in the third round (89th overall) of the 2009 NFL draft. The Tennessee Titans traded their second round pick in the 2010 NFL draft to the New England Patriots in order to draft Cook. Cook was the third tight end drafted in 2009.[5]

On July 2, 2009, the Tennessee Titans signed Cook to a four-year, $2.45 million contract that included a signing bonus of $711,000.[6][7]

Throughout training camp, Cook competed against Alge Crumpler and Craig Stevens for a role as the primary backup tight end.[8] Head coach Jeff Fisher named Cook the fourth tight end on the Titans' depth chart to begin the regular season, behind Bo Scaife, Alge Crumpler, and Craig Stevens.[9]

On September 20, 2009, he made his professional debut in the Titans' Week 2 loss to the Houston Texans after being a healthy scratch the previous week. On October 4, 2009, Cook caught two passes for 11 yards during a 37–17 loss at the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4.

Cook finished his rookie season with nine receptions for 74 receiving yards in 14 games and no starts.[11]

2010 season

Cook competed against Craig Stevens throughout training camp to be the second tight end on the depth chart after Alge Crumpler departed during free agency. Offensive coordinator Mike Heimerdinger named Cook the third tight end on the depth chart to start the season, behind Bo Scaife and Craig Stevens.[12] On December 19, 2010, Cook earned his first career start after Bo Scaife was benched as a possible result of comments he made about a divided locker room.[13] He finished the Titans 31–17 victory against the Houston Texans with three catches for 42 receiving yards. On December 26, 2010, Cook caught five passes for a season-high 96 yards and scored his first NFL touchdown during a 34–14 loss at the Kansas City Chiefs. He caught a 22-yard touchdown reception off a pass by quarterback Kerry Collins in the third quarter to mark his first career touchdown.[14]

Cook caught a 55-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Matt Hasselbeck in the first quarter.[20]

Cook appeared in all 16 games and had five starts in 2011 while catching 49 passes for a career-high 759 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He also made five solo tackles while appearing on special teams in 2011.[21]

2012 season

Cook returned as the secondary tight end behind Craig Stevens in 2012 under offensive coordinator Chris Palmer.[22] On December 9, 2012, Cook caught three passes for 20 yards and a touchdown before exiting during a 27–23 loss at the Indianapolis Colts due to an injury.[23]

Cook finished the 2012 season with 44 receptions for 523 yards and four touchdown receptions in 13 games and five starts.[24]

During the offseason, Cook requested the Titans to franchise tag him as a wide receiver, which attracts a bigger pay. However, the Titans chose to decline and Cook became an unrestricted free agent.[25] He reportedly received interest from multiple teams, including the Chicago Bears, Cleveland Browns, Miami Dolphins, and St. Louis Rams.[26][27]

St. Louis Rams

2013 season

On March 12, 2013, the St. Louis Rams signed Cook to a five-year, $35.10 million contract with $16 million guaranteed where he was reunited with Jeff Fisher.[28]

He made his Rams' debut in their season-opener against the Arizona Cardinals and caught a season-high seven passes for 141 yards and two touchdowns in a 27–24 win. He fumbled a possible touchdown in the first quarter as it was stripped by Tyrann Mathieu and recovered by Karlos Dansby for a touchback. Cook caught his first touchdown of the season on a 13-yard pass from quarterback Sam Bradford during the second quarter.[29]

Cook finished his first season with the Rams with 51 receptions for 671 receiving yards and a career-high five touchdowns in 16 games and 13 starts.[30]

2014 season

2015 season

Head coach Jeff Fisher named Cook and Lance Kendricks the starting tight ends to start the regular season as the Rams chose to primarily use two-tight end sets. Cook appeared in all 16 games with 12 starts and caught 39 passes for 481 receiving yards and was held without a touchdown reception for the first time since his rookie season.[34] Cook played in 70% of the Rams' offensive snaps and led their tight ends with 672 offensive snaps.[35]

2016 season

During the offseason, Cook was expected to be cut by the St. Louis Rams due to his $8.30 million cap number in 2016.[36] On February 19, 2016, the Rams officially released Cook, freeing $5.69 million in cap space.[37] As an unrestricted free agent, Cook received interest from a few teams and attended a meeting with the Green Bay Packers.[38]

Green Bay Packers

On March 28, 2016, the Green Bay Packers signed Cook to a one-year, $2.75 million contract with $875,000 guaranteed.[39][40]

His absence significantly delayed his ability to become the primary tight end for the Green Bay Packers and he was subsequently named the secondary starting tight end to begin the regular season, behind Richard Rodgers.[42]

On September 25, 2016, Cook caught a pass for a 15-yard gain before exiting in the second quarter of the Packers' 34–27 victory against the Detroit Lions after spraining his ankle.[43] Cook was subsequently inactive for the next six games (Weeks 4–10) due to the ankle injury. His injury ended his 51-game streak of consecutive game appearances. On November 20, Cook returned from his injury and caught a season-high six passes for 105 yards and a touchdown during a 42–24 loss at the Washington Redskins. During the fourth quarter, Cook caught a six-yard pass from quarterback Aaron Rodgers, but had it stripped away by cornerback Josh Norman.[44] Cook finished his single season with the Packers with 30 receptions for 377 receiving yards and a touchdown in ten games and five starts.[45]

The Packers finished first in the NFC North with a 10–6 record and earned a playoff berth.[46] On January 8, 2017, Cook appeared in his first career playoff game and caught five passes for 48 yards during a 38–13 win against the New York Giants in the NFC Wild Card Round.[47] On January 15, 2017, Cook made six receptions for 103 yards and a touchdown as the Packers' defeated the Dallas Cowboys 34–31 in the NFC Divisional Round.[48] During the fourth quarter, Cook caught a 36-yard pass from Aaron Rodgers along the sideline with three seconds left to set up the Packers' game-winning 51-yard field goal by Mason Crosby.[49] The following week, Cook started in the NFC Championship and caught seven passes for 78 yards and a touchdown during a 44–21 loss at the Atlanta Falcons.[50]
