James Cook's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook has finished as a top-three fantasy football runner twice this season. One instance came from his 133-yard, two-touchdown performance a week ago. The other came in Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins, the same opponent he'll face on Sunday. Cook scored three touchdowns in that matchup. Expecting another hat trick isn't realistic, but an all-around RB1 performance is in play. The Bills have leaned on the running game throughout the season and the Dolphins' defense is weaker on the ground than through the air. Cook is an RB1 in the rankings this week.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook rushed 17 times for 111 yards and two touchdowns in the team's 31-10 win over the Seattle Seahawks. He also caught three passes for 22 yards. It was an all-around tremendous effort from Cook, who ran with great vision and agility and plowed through defenders. His scores came in the second half as the Bills played with a lead. Cook has a stranglehold on the Buffalo backfield, despite Ray Davis' emergence in Week 6. Cook will be an RB1 next week against Miami. He scored three touchdowns against the Dolphins in Week 2.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook has successfully fended off an enticing rookie running back. When Cook missed Week 6 with a toe injury, Ray Davis exploded, creating fears of a committee. Cook returned in Week 7 and dominated touches before the game became a blowout. The 25-year-old has six touchdowns in as many games this season and failed to score or top 100 yards once (Week 4 at Baltimore). Expect another heavy dosage of touches for Cook against Seattle, a defense that allows the 12th-most fantasy points per game to the position.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook rushed 12 times for 32 yards and a touchdown in the team's 34-10 win over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. For the first time this season, Cook did not record a reception. The touchdown saved what was otherwise an inefficient day on the ground. Cook returned to the lineup after a one-game absence and handled the early-down work for the Bills in the first half. Backup rookie Ray Davis (five carries, 41 yards, one touchdown) got the majority of his production in the second half. Expect Cook to remain the starter and handle most of the running back touches against Seattle in Week 8.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook (toe) logged full practices on Thursday and Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Tennessee Titans. The toe issue forced Cook to sit out Monday's game against the Jets. He'll step right back into the starting lineup and may not have to worry about Ray Davis (calf) taking away touches. The rookie is questionable following his big game with Cook inactive. The Titans' defense is better against the pass than the ground game. Plus, offensive coordinator Joe Brady appears committed to the run no matter which running back gets the carries. Cook should be locked into fantasy football lineups this weekend.
