Bills: RB James Cook (toe) has 'a chance' to play Week 7

Joe Buscaglia on X

Oct 15 · 6:16 PM EDT

Bills HC Sean McDermott said he thinks RB James Cook and DT Ed Oliver "have a chance" to play against the Titans on Sunday. He says his hope is that both play.

Related players: Ray Davis

Fantasy Impact:

Cook was ultimately was ruled out on Monday night in what many felt was a bit of a surprise. Those in the dynasty community have been well aware of Davis and his potential. Davis is considered "old" for a rookie, already 25, but many felt he was NFL-ready, and he showed that on MNF: rushing for 97 and leading the Bills in receiving with a 3-55-0 line. Twice, once after a penalty, Davis was denied a chance for a TD on the 1-yard line and Josh Allen took it in or Davis' fantasy production would have been a few points higher. Still, Davis could have earned himself more work going for forward, but at the very least has fantasy value as a handcuff to Cook owners.

BUF RB James Cook - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. New England Patriots
In a Week 14 game that turned into a passing-fest, James Cook ended up handling only six carries, turning them into 20 scoreless yards. The good news: those six carries were 100% of the running back carries. The bad news: he scored 3.9 fantasy points while his team scored 42 real-life points.

He predictably turned things around last week, earning 133 total yards and two rushing touchdowns, bringing his total to 13 on the year. The Patriots rank dead last in RB aFPA, which means Cook should be considered a fantasy RB1.
