Dalvin Cook gives James Cook key piece of advice after Bills RB’s Pro Bowl snub

James and Dalvin Cook are brothers who are both running backs in the NFL. While James, a 2022 second-round choice of the Buffalo Bills, is fresh to the league, Dalvin is a star for the New York Jets.

Dalvin tweeted that James would soon reap the benefits of his younger brother's continued good performance:

"Just keep doing what your doing and let the bag in a few weeks speak for itself."

Dalvin posted this tweet since James is in the final days of his rookie contract. Therefore, he has the choice of being a free agent and exploring other possibilities or he can extend his contract with the Bills.

When compared to his debut season in 2023, James improved in 2024. He has played a vital role as the Bills' primary rusher this season. He gained 700 rushing yards in 2024 as opposed to 500 in 2023. He's regarded by many analysts and commentators as a major talent for the years to come.

With a $3.9 million signing bonus, James' current rookie contract pays him almost $8.8 million over four years. When the young talent becomes a free agent in 2025, a lot of organizations will have an opportunity to sign him.

Dalvin Cook, James Cook: Shared paths to success

Since coming to the NFL in 2017, Dalvin Cook has become a huge star as one of the league's top running backs. He recently joined the New York Jets in 2024 and is among the team's most important players. He has committed to a one-year deal with the squad, which will bring in close to $7 million this season.

The two brothers share a great bond outside the NFL. They have been seen together partying many times.

In response to a question about playing with his older brother Dalvin, James said that they always have a competitive rivalry and work to win for their teams. He jokingly said that there is a lot of trash talk between them whenever they are on the field together.
