James Cook Week 3 Outlook - Jaguars at Bills

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Wed, Sep 18th 2024, 9:01pm EDT

James Cook flashed his versatility last week with a pair of rushing touchdowns and a third score through the air. That versatility should be on display in Week 3 when Cook and the Buffalo Bills host the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jacksonville allowed an overall RB6 to De'Von Achane in Week 1 by virtue of seven receptions for 76 yards as well as a goal-line touchdown run. The Jaguars are allowing 1.51 yards before contact per rush. That is the second-highest rate in the NFL. They also generate pressure on the quarterback at the third-highest rate. This could lead to some more work for Cook as a receiver out of the backfield. James Cook should be able to provide RB1 production in this matchup.
