This ends a nine-day hold-in by Cook, who sought a deal exceeding $15 million annually. The $12 million average annual value ranks sixth among NFL running backs. This is the Bills' fifth contract extension this offseason, solidifying their commitment to their key players and building on their successful rushing attack. GM Brandon Beane expressed his satisfaction with finalizing the deal, highlighting the team's focus on drafting, developing, and retaining players.
