Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (ankle) did not return to his team's game Sunday, Sept. 25, against the Detroit Lions due to an ankle injury.

Fantasy Tip: Keep an eye on this situation and how it looks for Cook moving forward. Richard Rodgers could benefit from increased playing time if Cook can't go next week.

Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook is unconcerned about his lack of Week 1 production and suggested some of the plays that were called for him against the Jacksonville Jaguars were scrapped because the Jaguars provided safety help over the top, opening up chances for teammates. "It's fun, man. It's hard for the defense to be right, you know? It's hard for them to single out one guy and go after one guy, or single out two guys and go out two guys. It's a fun offense to be a part of because any given day, or any given Sunday, anybody is going to get off," Cook said.

Fantasy Tip: Despite his lackluster Week 1 showing, Cook remains a strong hold as a high-upside TE2 in an offense that views him as the downfield threat it hasn't had since Jermichael Finley. Owners can expect another slow game versus the Minnesota Vikings this week, but he has mouthwatering matchups versus the Detroit Lions and New York Giants over the next two weeks.

Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook will play his first preseason game with QB Aaron Rodgers Friday, Aug. 26, against the San Francisco 49ers. The two have developed a rapport with one another since Cook came off the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list Aug. 9.

Fantasy Tip: Cook is behind Richard Rodgers on the depth chart, so fantasy owners can leave him to the waiver wire into the regular season. However, he still has plenty left in the tank and could be a key contributor if Richard Rodgers suffers some sort of long-term injury.

Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (foot) made a positive impression during his first training camp action, hauling in several impressive grabs in practice on Tuesday, Aug. 9.

Fantasy Tip: Signed to a free-agent deal during the offseason, Cook is competing with holdover Richard Rodgers for the No. 1 tight end job. If he can outlast Rodgers, Cook would be an interesting reserve with upside.

Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (foot) has been cleared and is coming off the Physically Unable to Perform list Tuesday, Aug. 9, according to a source.

Fantasy Tip: Green Bay's tight end situation still isn't set in stone with Cooks' return. Richard Rodgers and Cook will battle for the starting position. Whoever wins the job could make for a nice sleeper this year, but shouldn't be viewed as a starting fantasy tight end.

Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (foot) might return from the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list next week, QB Aaron Rodgers said Sunday, Aug. 7.

Fantasy Tip: Cook will be behind Richard Rodgers on the depth chart, so his fantasy appeal is limited to the deepest of formats unless Rodgers suffers some sort of long-term injury.

Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (foot) does not have a timetable for a return from foot surgery, although a league source said Tuesday, July 26, that he might be on track to return by the second week of preseason.

Fantasy Tip: Cook is behind Richard Rodgers on the depth chart, and not expected to be a fantasy target for most owners unless Rodgers suffers some sort of a long-term injury.

Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson (knee) and TE Jared Cook (foot) and others may initially be held out of training camp practices.

Fantasy Tip: It would behoove the Packers to take it easy with Nelson, who is coming off a torn anterior cruciate ligament. If Nelson doesn't suffer any setbacks, though, he's primed for another WR1 season. Meanwhile, it's still unclear if Cook will be starting at tight end for Green Bay. Richard Rodgers could take that spot, but neither should be pursued as a fantasy starter.

Green Bay Packers TE Richard Rodgers is expected to start over TE Jared Cook, not just in 2016, but for the next few seasons, according to Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. An advantage Rodgers has this season is that he is in better shape after weighing up to 272 pounds last year.

Fantasy Tip: The tight end position has been fairly underwhelming in Green Bay for a few years now. Rodgers and Cook could very well play as a committee together when all is said and done. Neither should be drafted as a starting fantasy tight end.

Green Bay Packers TE Richard Rodgers said he is working to improve as an all-around player, and he views the addition of TE Jared Cook as an opportunity to learn from a veteran.

Fantasy Tip: Rodgers caught eight touchdowns last year, but a healthy Jordy Nelson will push him down the pecking order in the passing game. At best, he is a backup fantasy tight end.
