Bills Provide QB Josh Allen Another Veteran Option by Signing Receiver Brandin Cooks
Brandin Cooks, with 729 receptions and 60 touchdowns, joins the Bills to add a down-field threat amid poor boundary receiver production, though his game availability is uncertain.
- On Nov 25, 2025, the Buffalo Bills signed veteran wide receiver Brandin Cooks, 32, with 12 NFL seasons of experience, the team announced Tuesday in Orchard Park, New York.
- Amid a sagging passing attack, Buffalo Bills pursued Brandin Cooks to upgrade a room pressured by injuries and discipline despite a top-10 offense averaging 234.6 passing yards per game.
- Cooks brings 729 career receptions and 9,697 yards, and this year he totaled 19 catches for 165 yards with 159 slot snaps and 263 outside snaps, Buffalo plans to use him outside.
- With Sunday's game looming, Buffalo Bills may use their last practice-squad elevation on Gabe Davis as Cooks's chance to play Sunday at Pittsburgh isn't great, trailing division leader by 2.5 games.
- Cooks's track record of adapting across five franchises and his six 1,000-yard seasons could help him quickly contribute, signaling GM Brandon Beane's pursuit of immediate upgrades.
