James Cook (foot/toe) not practicing Wednesday
James Cook (foot/toe) will not participate at Buffalo’s practice on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Cook is going to miss Wednesday’s practice. He’s dealing with a foot injury of some kind, and the exact severity of it remains unknown at this point. This might be more of a precautionary thing than anything else, but fantasy managers should keep close tabs on his status throughout the rest of the week.

Khalil Shakir (ankle) working on side Wednesday
Khalil Shakir was working along the sideline during practice on Wednesday with the strength and conditioning staff, doing some jogging and footwork drills.

Fantasy Impact

Shakir wasn’t seen at all during practice last week, so it is a step in the right direction for his progress. He’ll have an extra day to practice with the Bills playing on Monday.
