News: 2 days agoCook rushed 19 times for 80 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of three targets for five yards in the Bills' 30-20 win over the Colts on Sunday.

Spin: Cook worked hard for his yards Sunday, considering 20 of them came on one carry. However, that explosive play and his two-yard game-sealing touchdown run with just over three minutes remaining helped round out his fantasy day, and he now has four rushing scores in the last four games. While he surprisingly was quiet in the passing game despite the Bills being down multiple targets Sunday, Cook should remain busy as both a runner and receiver in a Week 11 home showdown against the Chiefs.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Cook returns to the gridiron for his third season with the Bills. He finished as RB12 in fantasy last season and ranked fourth in the league in rushing yards. Joe Brady replacing Ken Dorsey as offensive coordinator was a godsend for Cook. From Weeks 11 through 18, Cook averaged and impressive 19.6 touches and 16.4 fantasy points per game. Since Cook is the undisputed leader of the Bills' backfield, we can expect a similar workload from him in 2024. He can be safely drafted as a high-end RB2.
