Cooks (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Mike Evans (Achilles) is also inactive for a third consecutive game, but Cooks' services are not needed Sunday due to the return of Deebo Samuel (hamstring) and the acquisition of Keenan Allen from the Colts on Tuesday. It's unclear if Cooks will have any role in the 49ers' offense once Evans is cleared to return. For now, Cooks' next chance to suit up is Week 11 against the Vikings on Nov. 22.
