It wasn't a lost campaign for Cooks in 2025, as his addition to the Bills' roster helped diversify the passing attack. Still, it's worth wondering what Cooks might bring in a return to the Bills. Cooks feels like the best idea for a player who has some unfinished business to take care of with the Bills. Per Spotrac, Cooks could command in the neighborhood of $3 million this season.

Cooks positioned as best free-agent option for Bills redemption at $3M

Cooks is positioned as the best free-agent WR option for the Bills to address unfinished business from his 2025 season. The source notes his addition helped diversify the passing attack but he wasn't always successful catching Josh Allen's passes, attributed to lack of time on task before the season. With the 2026 season approaching, the source suggests it's worth wondering what Cooks might bring in a return and calls him the best idea for a player with unfinished business, despite being not the most affordable option at $3M market value. The source expresses surprise Buffalo hasn't already brought him back.
