Dylan Cook (born January 11, 1998) is an American professional football offensive lineman for the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Montana State–Northern Lights and Montana Grizzlies.

Early life and education

Cook was born on January 11, 1998, in Butte, Montana.[1] He attended Butte High School and played quarterback, throwing for 3,124 yards as a senior.[2][3] Afterwards, he joined the Montana State–Northern Lights of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and saw limited playing time across the 2016 and 2017 seasons.[4] In addition to playing quarterback, he also saw time at long snapper for them.[5] He posted no statistics as a true freshman in 2016 and completed 11-of-18 pass attempts for 181 yards with two touchdown passes in 2017.[2]

Cook then transferred to Montana as a walk-on and made the rare transition to the offensive line, sitting out his first season due to transfer rules.[5][6] He impressed the team and was awarded an athletic scholarship prior to the 2019 season.[5] He played 13 games, 11 as a starter, with them in 2019 before playing two games in the COVID-19-shortened 2020–21 season.[7] He was a full-time starter in his final year, the fall 2021 season, and was selected fourth-team all-conference by Phil Steele.[8] He finished his stint at Montana with 27 games played, 23 as a starter, at right tackle.[8]
