Former Georgia and current Buffalo Bills running back James Cook has been named the AFC Offensive Player of the Month after a great start to the 2025 NFL season.
Cook showcased his versatility throughout the month of September, racking up big plays both on the ground and through the air. He has consistently provided balance for the Bills’ offensive attack, posting multiple 100-yard rushing games and delivering key catches in critical moments.
His production has not only lifted the Bills’ offense but also highlighted his development into one of the AFC’s premier playmakers. With Cook hitting his stride, the Bills look poised to keep momentum rolling as the season moves deeper into the fall.
Cook currently boasts 401 rushing yards for 5 touchdowns on 75 attempts and 89 receiving yards on 12 receptions. His most impressive game this season was on Sept. 14, when he recorded 132 yards for 2 touchdowns to help the Bills achieve a 30-10 victory over the New York Jets.
At the start of October, Cook ranks second in the NFL in rushing, trailing only Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor. Cook’s 5 rushing touchdowns lead all NFL players.
The Bills (4-0) face the New England Patriots on Sunday. The Bills are an 8-point favorite, per BetMGM. Fans can bet on Cook’s rushing props using this BetMGM bonus code.
