Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on May 08, 1983)

Happy Birthday, Ryan Cook! From snapping footballs to blocking defenders, you've always been at the center of attention—literally. Whether it was your impressive run with the Vikings after being drafted in 2006 or holding down the line for Miami and Dallas, you made sure quarterbacks stayed upright and running backs found daylight.

Here's hoping your birthday is smoother than a perfect snap and more enjoyable than watching defensive linemen bounce off your blocks. May this year bring as much success as those memorable NFL Sundays when fans cheered your name—and may no one ever question who's truly "Cook-ing" on game day!
