Buffalo Bills' 1991 NFL MVP unveils his current favorite player 'besides Josh'

Buffalo Bills legendary running back Thurman Thomas, who remains closely connected to the organization as an ambassador and Hall of Famer, revealed his favorite current player on the roster aside from quarterback Josh Allen. Thomas specifically named running back James Cook, praising his performance over the past two seasons and expressing excitement about his recent contract extension.

Thomas highlighted Cook’s back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing campaigns and consecutive Pro Bowl selections, noting that the new four-year deal offers an opportunity for Cook to further elevate his game. He suggested that Cook could be utilized more in the passing game and should see increased playing time, despite the Bills' current three-tiered running back system involving Ray Davis and Ty Johnson.

Thomas’s admiration for Cook was further demonstrated when he shared a photo on social media wearing a James Cook jersey during a Bills playoff game. He indicated that he may continue to support Cook publicly, potentially even wearing his jersey at Highmark Stadium in the future.
