The Buffalo Bills are signing running back James Cook to a four-year, $48-million extension with $30 million guaranteed, his agent told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Cook's guaranteed money is the most a running back has received in the last five years, Schefter adds. The Georgia product's $12 million average annual salary ties him for the sixth-highest-paid running back in the league, according to Over The Cap.
"James could only envision himself as a Buffalo Bill," his agent said about the new extension. "We are extremely thankful to the entire Bills organization and glad we could make that happen."
