Bills RB James Cook Is Looking to Improve, a Year After He Led the NFL in Rushing
Cook and coach Joe Brady are stressing turnovers after he lost four of seven fumbles last season, including one in a playoff loss.
- Buffalo Bills running back James Cook III demonstrated power and elusiveness during Tuesday's practice, the team's first full day in pads, while prioritizing ball security after losing four fumbles last year.
- Last season, the 26-year-old Cook led the NFL with 1,621 rushing yards and 309 carries, proving his value after securing a four-year, $48 million contract.
- Head coach Joe Brady expects Cook to remain the offensive workhorse this year. Teammate Ray Davis said, "He's going to continue to excel and prove that he earned every dollar."
- Acknowledging his responsibility, Cook stated, "The ball is everybody's job, and that's my job." He emphasized the team's playoff urgency: "The ball is in our hands. Eventually, it's going to happen."
- Rejecting questions about past disappointments, Cook told reporters last week, "I'm looking forward to doing even bigger things" as he prepares for the upcoming NFL season in Buffalo.
