Cowboys running back campaigns for Buffalo Bills star to get paid
Dalvin Cook hasn’t worked out as planned for the Dallas Cowboys, but it has still been a good day for the Cook family.
Buffalo Bills star James Cook, Dalvin’s younger brother, has been excelling in the backfield and is currently tied for third in the NFL with 11 rushing touchdowns.
Of course, Dalvin has been paying close attention to his brother’s performance and he took to social media to praise his performance.
After Cook rushed for 107 yards and one touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers in a blizzard, Dalvin campaigned for James to get his big payday.
James Cook is under contract through the 2025 season. He is set to make $1.5 million next year.
If he continues to perform at a high level through the remainder of the season and into the playoffs, Buffalo could act quickly to lock up their franchise running back.
It’s not like they are run by Jerry Jones, or we know James Cook would have to wait until the last minute.
The Dallas Cowboys are 5-7, barely holding on to playoff hopes. After three straight 12-5 seasons, this year has been humbling for Cowboys fans as they’ve watched their team struggle with injuries, coaching blunders, and overall disappointment.
Despite the poor record, the team has seen the emergence of young players stepping into the spotlight and wearing the star with pride, along with the usual dominance from their established stars.
Of course, former All-Pros Micah Parsons and CeeDee Lamb come to mind. However, Parsons has missed four games, which has limited his impact on defense, and Lamb has struggled to deliver big plays while failing to establish himself as a consistent red zone threat.
Overshown has been a defensive playmaker, excelling in pass coverage, run-stopping, and especially blitzing the quarterback. He has been a spark plug on a Cowboys defense that has struggled throughout the year, consistently stepping up during the team’s rare wins and stuffing the stat sheet.
