Bills running back James Cook turned in a rather unusual performance on Monday night, which was perfectly summed up by his 42-yard rush in the fourth quarter.
During the big run, Cook coughed up the football, only for it to fortuitously bounce right back into his hands. Cook barely needed to break stride as he regained control of the ball and continued running until Denver’s defense eventually caught up to him after a long gain that put Buffalo in position for a go-ahead touchdown (though Denver wound end up with the win after kicking a field goal as time expired).
Justin Simmons made a great play to punch the ball loose from Cook’s grasp, however in a rather bewildering moment, it took a basketball-like bounce right back into Buffalo’s running back’s possession.
