Florida State running back Dalvin Cook had surgery on his shoulder earlier this week but is expected to be ready for preseason practice in August.
Cook finished in the top10 in Heisman Trophy voting last year after he ran for a school single-season record 1,691 yards and had 19 rushing touchdowns,
Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher told reporters that Cook might have injured his shoulder in a recent practice when he felt something. Something was the labrum of his right shoulder.
“We cleaned up some stuff in the back of his shoulder, and he’ll be ready in a couple of months,” Fisher told the Tallahassee Democrat. “He’ll be ready to go in June or July, and train (for next season).”
While in high school, Cook had surgery on his left shoulder. He underwent another procedure to the front of his right shoulder as an early enrollee at Florida State in 2014.
Jacques Park, a sophomore, and junior Ryan Green will get the majority of reps and during the Seminoles’ spring game.
