The Buffalo Bills are under pressure to finally get to the Super Bowl during the 2025 NFL season. Buffalo will need all hands on deck if they want to make that ambitious goal a reality. To that end, the Bills finally put an end to one of this offseason’s biggest storylines on Wednesday morning.
The Bills have finally agreed to a contract extension with star running back James Cook, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. Cook will receive a four-year extension worth $48 million, including $30 million guaranteed.
Now Buffalo now have Cook locked down for years to come.
Cook’s contract dispute with the Bills was one of the bigger storylines surrounding the team this summer. He stopped practicing at training camp on August 3rd as part of his hold-in.
Negotiations seemingly took a turn on Tuesday. Bills coach Sean McDermott noted that Cook’s negotiations “changed” but would not elaborate on exactly how. Cook notably returned to training camp practice on Tuesday as well.
Cook now has a new contract extension less than 24 hours later.
