Jets TE makes recruiting pitch to Pro Bowl RB

There appears to be mutual interest between the New York Jets and free-agent running back Dalvin Cook, and now it seems some Jets players are hitting Cook with recruiting pitches.

Tight end Tyler Conklin, who ranked second on the team with 58 receptions and 552 receiving yards last season and was teammates with Cook in Minnesota, disclosed that he contacted the four-time Pro Bowler about joining forces again in New York.

"There's plenty of room; we've got room for whoever wants to come help us win a Super Bowl," Conklin said Monday on “Good Morning Football.” "Me and Dalvin were basically locker-mates my first couple years, and he was an awesome guy. I reached out to him because I was just curious, like are the rumors true? Is this actually possible? That'd be a special backfield with Breece (Hall) and Dalvin and the rookie (Israel Abanikanda) and whatnot…Mike Carter. I don't know. That's a lot of running backs, but I think that'd be special, especially in this outside zone scheme.”
