Injury Status: H

I. Player News & Analysis

Trends

"Cook enters his fourth NFL season as one of the trickiest evaluations in fantasy. On one hand, Cook operates in a three-headed committee (albeit as the starter), which limited his carries (19th among RBs last season), targets (34th), touches (22nd) and total yardage (21st) last season. On the other, he's an explosive playmaker (4.87 YPC) in an elite offense who tied for the NFL lead 16 rushing touchdowns in 16 regular season games last season. Cook is obviously a strong bet for touchdown regression to the mean (especially considering he had nine TDs during his first two seasons), but the 25-year-old gets enough run in a great offense to produce starting-caliber fantasy numbers. Value him as a fringe top-15 back."

"Cook notched carries of 10 yards and five yards on the game's first two plays before letting Ray Davis and Ty Johnson split Buffalo's backfield workload the rest of the way. Despite Cook's limited workload in the regular-season finale, he'll finish as the league leader in rushing yards unless Derrick Henry gains at least 153 rushing yards in Sunday's game against the Steelers. The Bills earned the No. 6 seed in the AFC playoffs and will go on the road against the Jaguars in the wild-card round."

	James Cook III's rushing touchdowns have increased by 300.0% over the past 6 weeks.
	James Cook III's targets have increased by 70.0% over the past 12 weeks.
	James Cook III's total touchdowns have increased by 300+% over the past 6 weeks.
	James Cook III's total points have increased by 300+% over the past 6 weeks.
	James Cook III's receiving yards have decreased by 68.83% over the past 6 weeks.
