James Cook has established himself as one of the top running backs in the NFL that doesn't get enough notice (and he should).

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook has improved his production against loaded defensive boxes through six games in 2026. Despite opposing defenses stacking the box on 92.3 percent of his runs, Cook has rushed for 627 yards and six touchdowns on 117 carries. BuffaLowDown notes this outpaces his performance from last season, with Cook currently ranking third in the NFL in total rushing yards.
The article also highlights Cook's response to earlier ball security concerns. After head coach Joe Brady challenged Cook regarding fumbling issues prior to the game against the Las Vegas Raiders, the running back carried the ball 22 times for 95 yards without committing a fumble.
