Buffalo Bills' running back James Cook got his contract extension on Wednesday and general manager Brandon Beane used it as an example to detail what the team's preferred approach is when it comes to building the roster.

“Bills GM Brandon Beane said he was at first worried about the James Cook hold-in becoming a distraction, but believes the core of the team knew what this was about, and everyone was level-headed,” The Athletic’s Joe Buscaglia posted on X, formerly Twitter.

Buffalo Bills general manager put his team's money where their mouth is by finally inking running back James Cook to a four-year extension. Ahead of his fourth year in the NFL, the Pro Bowl rusher was holding himself out of practices as of late to get a long-awaited extension. On Wednesday, that finally happened.
