James Dalvin Cook (born September 25, 1999) is an American professional football running back for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Georgia Bulldogs and was selected by the Bills in the second round of the 2022 NFL draft.

Cook is the younger brother of fellow NFL running back Dalvin Cook.[1]

Early life

Cook grew up in Miami, Florida, and attended Miami Central Senior High School.[2][3] He rushed for 709 yards and eight touchdowns on 99 carries as a freshman.[4] After his freshman year, Cook took extra courses and reclassified from a sophomore to a junior.[5] As a senior, he rushed for 782 yards and 10 touchdowns on 91 carries. Cook rushed for 2,019 yards and 30 touchdowns during his high school career.[6]

Cook was a highly rated recruit and initially committed to play college football at Florida State, where his brother was playing, after his freshman year of high school.[7] However, he later decommitted during the summer before his senior year.[8] Cook later signed a letter of intent to play at Georgia after considering offers from Louisville and Florida.[9] Cook transferred to Miami Northwestern Senior High School after his senior football season for his final semester of high school.[10] Cook finished high school as a 4 star recruit.[8]

College career

Cook played in 13 games as a freshman and gained 284 yards and scored two touchdowns on 41 carries with eight receptions for 89 yards.[11] He played in all 14 of Georgia's games and rushed 31 times for 188 yards and two touchdowns while also catching 16 passes for 132 yards in his sophomore season.[12] In 2020, Cook was the team's second-leading rusher with 303 yards and three touchdowns on 45 carries and caught 16 passes for 225 yards and two touchdowns.[13] Cook missed the 2021 Peach Bowl following the death of his father.[14]

Cook rushed for 728 yards and seven touchdowns and caught 27 passes for 284 yards and four touchdowns as a senior as the Bulldogs won the 2022 College Football Playoff National Championship.[15] He was the leading receiver for Georgia with 112 yards and one touchdown on four receptions in the team's 34–11 win over Michigan in the Orange Bowl semifinal game.[16] After the end of the season, Cook declared that he would be entering the 2022 NFL draft.[17]

Cook at the 2024 Pro Bowl

2023 season

Cook became Buffalo's primary running back for the 2023 season with previous starter Devin Singletary departing for the Houston Texans in free agency,[27] though goal-line and pass protection snaps went to veteran signing Latavius Murray. Against the Dallas Cowboys in week 15, Cook attained career highs in several single-game categories, including rush attempts (25), rush yards (179), total scrimmage yards (221), and total touchdowns (2), as the Bills routed Dallas 31–10.[28] The following week against the Los Angeles Chargers, Cook surpassed 1,000 rushing yards on the season, becoming the first Bills running back to do so since LeSean McCoy in 2017.[29] He finished the 2023 season with 237 carries for 1,122 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns to go with 44 receptions for 445 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns. He had eight games on the season with at least 100 scrimmage yards.[30]

2024 season

In Week 2 of the 2024 season, Cook had two rushing touchdowns and a receiving touchdown in the 31–10 victory over the Dolphins, earning AFC Offensive Player of the Week.[31][32]

Personal life

Cook was arrested by Athens police in December 2019 for driving with an open alcohol container and driving without a valid license.[33]

In July 2020, Cook crashed into five unoccupied parked cars near downtown Athens. Moments before, according to police, Cook was traveling up to 85 mph, nearly striking an oncoming vehicle. Athens-Clark County deputy solicitor Janna Landreth offered to drop additional charges in the case if Cook pleaded guilty to reckless driving, for which Cook would have to pay a $670 fine, supply financial restitution to at-most two of the five damaged vehicles, and complete a defensive-driving course. Cook subsequently failed to appear in court relating to this case, for which Georgia Bulldogs football Director of Player Support Bryant Gantt claimed responsibility. Cook was not penalized for the missed date.[34]
