PositiveRoleJul 9, 2026
Cooks joined the Bills late in the 2025 season and was targeted by Josh Allen on the controversial overtime play in the AFC Divisional Round loss to Denver, indicating he filled a niche role in the receiver room where he was needed and contributing. At 33 years old with 734 career receptions, 9,811 receiving yards, and 60 receiving touchdowns, he remains a valued commodity on the open market. Cooks expressed strong motivation to return to Buffalo for 2026, stating 'Obviously, Buffalo is the place I'd love to be' and expressing desire to 'have a full offseason with them.' He is channeling the playoff heartbreak into determination, saying 'what I can do about it is get back on the field, continue to work on being the best that I can be and making sure next time it's a catch-and-run for a touchdown and leave it in no one else's hands.' The Bills have since added DJ Moore and fourth-round pick Skyler Bell to the receiver room, but remain open to reuniting with Cooks.
