The Buffalo Bills and Cook have agreed to terms on a four-year, $48 million contract extension with $30 million guaranteed, NFL Network Insiders Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported, per sources informed of the deal.
Bills general manager Brandon Beane confirmed Cook’s deal through the 2029 season in a news conference later Wednesday.
“We want to draft and develop and re-sign,” Beane said. “You guys know all the money we’ve doled out this offseason. This is another draft pick that we’re proud of and excited to extend.
“Fortunately, late last night, we got it across the finish line.”
The $12 million per year in new-money average is a significant boost over the $5.27 million in base salary the running back was set to make in the final year of his rookie contract. Cook is now tied for the sixth-highest-paid running back annually in the NFL.
“I just want to spend the rest of my career here and be here forever,” Cook told team reporter Maddy Glab upon signing the deal.
