Over the three weeks leading into Week 14, St. Louis Rams tight end Jared Cook had 46 total yards and three fantasy points. It's hard to imagine anyone using him in fantasy unless it was a truly desperate situation. So of course, Sunday had Cook putting up his best game all year in the Rams' 24-0 win over Washington.

Cook caught four passes Sunday for 61 yards, but two of the four catches went for touchdowns. He was the Rams’ leading receiver in the game and scored their only offensive touchdowns.
Fantasy impact: It’s still Jared Cook. He has a history of occasional pop-up games like this, with big yardage and/or some scoring, but he has never been able to show any kind of consistency.
Ultimately, it’s hard to imagine this game changes the prognosis on Cook much, if at all. He’s a mid-range No. 2 tight end at best, and might not even be that. He’s more likely to have a one-catch, 15-yard game in Week 15 than have anything even close to this.
