James Cook’s hold in has come to an end, at least temporarily. After warming up in the Bills preseason game on Saturday, Cook returned to practice today after voluntarily sitting out the last four practices @WKBW #BillsMafia pic.twitter.com/NyGchL1SZB

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook was back on the field with teammates on Tuesday, a welcome sign amid a continued contract dispute with the team. Cook’s return followed a series of hold-ins that saw him miss the final week of training camp at St. John Fisher University and Buffalo’s first preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

James Cook is set to make just $5 million in the final year of his rookie deal. Reports have suggested he is looking for a deal that would see him earn around $15 million annually. Such a deal would make the two-time Pro Bowler the third-highest-paid RB in the league. Only behind Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey [ via Spotrac ].
