NFL brothers James, Dalvin Cook share opposite middle names, too

James Cook and Dalvin Cook are brothers.

Most people know that, that the Buffalo Bills' standout RB and former Minnesota Vikings' star runner are connected in that way.

But there's another, deeper connection, too.

It comes with their middle names:

• The older brother's full name is Dalvin James Cook.
• The younger brother's full name is James Dalvin Cook.

This isn't new information, but it once in a while trends on social media and is worth remembering.

And what incredible info this is.

Talk about a winning sports trivia fact.

Makes sense, really. If you've got pretty much the same name and same genes as someone else, things can turn out quite similarly.
