From the article

James Cook is currently -114 at FanDuel O/U 74.5 rushing yards. Cook can get most of that total with one cut to the end zone. At some point, Brady will lean into the running game in an attempt to smash home a proper reminder about who led the league in rushing for 2025. Interestingly, Cook is also -114 (at publishing) to finish O/U 19.5 receiving yards. I say he finishes over that total, perhaps north of 30 yards on the day. Parallels have been drawn between Cook and Alvin Kamara for good reason. Cook came out of college as a premiere dual-threat player, and I expect Brady to better unleash Cook in that role this season.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Cook projected for 100+ scrimmage yards with dual-threat role expansion under Brady.

Cook is projected to exceed 100 yards from scrimmage in Week 1; currently -114 at FanDuel O/U 74.5 rushing yards and -114 O/U 19.5 receiving yards. The source expects Cook to finish over the receiving yards total (north of 30 yards) and notes parallels to Alvin Kamara as a dual-threat player, with Brady expected to better unleash Cook in that role this season. Cook is also -105 as an anytime touchdown scorer and -165 to lead the game in rushing yards, both of which the source views as likely outcomes.
