Bills minicamp begins with focus on Cook's return and injury updates
Summary

The Buffalo Bills opened their mandatory minicamp with running back James Cook returning after an absence from offseason workouts. Coach Joe Brady acknowledged Cook's previous contract-related absence but expressed confidence in his work ethic. Cook had a standout 2025 season, leading the NFL in rushing yards. However, linebacker Dorian Williams is not practicing due to a lingering neck injury. The competition for the left guard position is expected to intensify once training camp begins, as current drills lack physicality. Brady emphasized the importance of upcoming training sessions as players compete for roster spots.
