That has yet to happen, but the Cowboys may be signing a different tune following the team\u2019s bye week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_ugchg41h2\">Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy provided an update on Cook\u2019s status and hinted the four-time Pro Bowler could get elevated for Sunday\u2019s primetime showdown against the\u00a0San Francisco 49ers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_wmuadf6mh\">\u201cI think the biggest thing for us is we\u2019re taking the full week.
