Bills RB James Cook misses second straight practice

Alex Brasky

RB James Cook (foot/toe) remained sidelined at Thursday’s Bills practice. Cook’s second straight absence. Looking less likely that he will play against the Jets, but the longer week gives him a better chance.

Related Players: Ray Davis, Ty Johnson

Fantasy Impact:

If Cook were to miss Week 6, it's hard to say how the backfield load would get divvied up. Obviously Ty Johnson has more experience than rookie Ray Davis, but it's the latter who leads in the carry department, 26-10. Davis feels like the better pick-up, but neither one would carry a full bellcow load regardless, which makes them iffy spot-starts.

RB Leonard Fournette to sign with Bills

Jordan Schultz on X

Leonard Fournette tells me he’s in Buffalo and is planning to sign with the Bills today, pending a physical.

Related players: James Cook, Latavius Murray

Fantasy Impact:

"Playoff Lenny" had nearly 1,200 all-purpose yards, including a career-high 523 receiving yards, along with 6 TDs last season, Schultz went on to say. Fournette's role in the offense could come in the passing game, an area where Cook has been hit and miss. In Week 8 Cook had just one catch for six yards, but collected three catches for 46 yards and a TD in Week 7. Fournette could also steal some goal line TDs should the Bills opt to go away from Allen in those situations.

Bills RB Damien Harris misses Thursday practice

Sean McDermott says QB Josh Allen (right shoulder) will "be out there in some capacity at practice today.

RB Damien Harris, TE Quintin Morris and DT Ed Oliver will not practice

Related Players: Latavius Murray, James Cook

Fantasy Impact:

It's more likely that Murray continues to take over the early-and-goal-line role than it is that Cook gets a boost in those areas. The Bills have made it clear that they would like to keep the 190-pound running back out of harm's way, as he only has three of the team's 15 rushing attempts from within the opponent's five-yard line. Murray's role should put him in consideration as an RB3 option, as the team is currently 8.5-point favorites against the Patriots.

Harris suffered a neck injury after being hit by Giants linebacker Bobby Okereke and he was loaded on a backboard before being taken off the field by an ambulance.

Harris was able to flash a thumbs up before leaving the field and the Bills announced that he had movement in his arms and legs shortly after the injury.
