Bills RB Ty Johnson (hamstring) is inactive for tonight's game vs. the Lions. That should mean a few extra passing-down snaps for RB James Cook, who was a must-start anyway.

Bills RB Ty Johnson (hamstring) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Lions. With Johnson out last week, RB James Cook ran a route on 50% of pass plays -- up just a shade from last year's 46% route rate. Cook, of course, is a must-start regardless of Johnson's Week 2 status.

Bills RB Ty Johnson (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Texans. He ran a route on 36% of Buffalo’s pass plays and drew a 6.7% target share last year, so his absence should mean more passing-down work for RB James Cook.

Bills RB Ty Johnson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Texans. He only got in a limited practice on Friday, so he’s seemingly on the wrong side of 50/50. Johnson ran a route on 36% of Buffalo’s pass plays and drew a 6.7% target share last year. His absence would likely mean a boost in RB James Cook’s passing-down work.

The offseason arrival of OC Pete Carmichael sparked plenty of speculation that we'd see more receiving work for Buffalo RBs in 2026. Training camp has supported that notion so far.

Bills RB Ty Johnson (ankle) is inactive for today's game vs. the Jaguars. He's played a passing-down role throughout the season, averaging 1.9 targets and 1.4 catches per game. Look for RB James Cook to pick up most of that work today.

Bills RB Ty Johnson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Wild Card game vs. the Jaguars. He only got in a limited practice on Friday and is expected to be a game-time decision, HC Sean McDermott said. Johnson has played a small pass-catching role throughout the season, averaging 1.9 targets and 1.4 catches per game. His absence would be a slight boost to RB James Cook's receiving projection.

Bills RB James Cook (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That's a good sign for his Week 10 availability, but we'll see what he does on Friday and how he's listed on the final injury report for the Dolphins game. RBs Ray Davis and Ty Johnson remain worth stashing if you have the roster space.

Bills RB James Cook did not practice on Wednesday and is on the injury report with foot and ankle injuries. He carried 27 times in the Week 9 win over the Chiefs, including on Buffalo's final offensive snap. So this could be more of a rest day for Cook. But we'll look for further updates on his status and see if he practices tomorrow. RB Ty Johnson has played ahead of RB Ray Davis all season, so we'd project something close to a 50/50 backfield split if Cook ends up missing Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins.

Bills RB James Cook continued his hot start to the 2025 season in Sunday’s win over New Orleans. Cook rushed 22 times for 117 yards and 1 score, giving him at least one TD in all four games.

Bills RB Ty Johnson played well ahead of RB Ray Davis in Thursday night's win over the Dolphins. Johnson out-snapped Davis 15 to 4, playing more on early downs (7 snaps to 3) and third downs (4 to 0). Johnson finished with 3 carries for 13 yards, plus 1 catch on 2 targets for eight yards. Davis didn't record a carry and failed to catch his only target.

Bills RB Ray Davis sustained a concussion in Sunday's Wild Card win over the Broncos. That leaves him iffy for next weekend's Divisional Round game vs. the Ravens. We'll track Davis' progress through the protocol throughout the coming week. Davis has been operating as Buffalo's No. 3 RB behind James Cook and Ty Johnson, so his absence wouldn't make much of a fantasy impact.

Bills RB James Cook ran for 104 yards and 2 TDs on 14 carries in Sunday's win over the Lions. What he didn't do, though, was see much receiving work. Cook also played just 41.4% of offensive snaps overall, his second-smallest share of the season.

Bills QB Josh Allen posted a career-high 55.3 fantasy points in Sunday’s loss to the Rams. Allen accounted for six total TDs (three passing, three rushing).

Despite rushing for only 20 yards, Bills RB James Cook scored twice in a win over Kansas City. He added 5 catches (on 6 targets) for 7 yards.

Bills RB James Cook (toe) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Jets. It’s a surprise after multiple reports that Cook was expected to play. His absence leaves Buffalo’s backfield to Ray Davis, Ty Johnson, and rookie Frank Gore, who was elevated from the practice squad earlier today. If you’re looking for a Cook replacement, Davis is your best bet (assuming Jets RB Braelon Allen isn’t available).

Bills RB James Cook (toe) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Jets. He only got in a limited practice on Saturday. There have been multiple reports that Cook is expected to play in this one, but fantasy owners would be wise to stash RB Ray Davis or RB Ty Johnson as insurance just in case Cook ends up inactive.

Bills RB James Cook (toe) missed practice again on Friday. We'll see if he gets on the field tomorrow and how he's listed on the final injury report for Monday night's game vs. the Jets, but Cook owners should start making other plans for Week 6. RBs Ray Davis and Ty Johnson will likely form a committee if Cook misses the Monday nighter.

Bills RB James Cook (toe) did not practice on Thursday. We don't have any other details on the toe injury. Cook has an extra day to get ready for Monday night's game vs. the Jets, but consider him iffy for that one as of now. His absence would likely mean a committee backfield with RBs Ray Davis and Ty Johnson. Davis would be the better fantasy bet but only a RB3 or Flex play.
