‘If so, how much money will that cost? If the two sides don’t agree to an extension, Cook will enter the fourth and final year of his rookie contract in 2025.’

Opinion: 2025 State of the Bills: Quarterback
‘To do that, they’ll either need to restructure his deal once again (as they have the last few years) or sign an extension. That may be exactly what happens in order to get his salary more in-line with the best players in the league, and also allow more years to push some of that money down the road, lowering his cap hit.’
Opinion: An open letter to NFL MVP voters
‘I hope you voted for Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, but I’m worried you took the easy way out in this process. I’m thinking many of you took a look at Lamar Jackson’s stats, then compared them to Allen’s numbers, and voted for the Baltimore Ravens quarterback instead.’

Cook will go to Orlando in place of Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry, while McGovern will replace Kansas City Chiefs center Creed Humphrey.’
Allen has ‘trust and faith’ in group to continue success in Buffalo
‘”You keep going back and thinking about what you could have done differently, plays even throughout the game. It’s something that’s so little, but dropping the snap on that 2nd-and-6, turning it to a 3rd-and-9, where I probably catch the ball and I dart it to ‘Coop’ [Amari Cooper] and it’s 3rd-and-1 instead of 3rd-and-9. Things that, again, it’s not going to be in the stat sheet, but as a competitor, I think of those things of like, ‘Man, if I could have done this differently,'” said Allen on Monday while meeting with the media during his end-of-season press conference. “Anytime you lose, you’re going to have those thoughts in your head. It’s just understanding you’re not promised opportunities like that all the time. You’re not promised to get into the playoffs each and every year.”‘

Opinion: Arrow Up/Arrow Down: Bills at Chiefs – AFC Championship Game

McDermott: The Bills ‘came up a little bit short’ in nail-biting playoff loss to Kansas City
‘”We’re a good organization. We’ve had a heck of a season. There’s momentum going into next year. We played a lot of young guys, some because they earned it, some because out of injuries. So this is good experience for quite a few of those guys. And every year is different, right? So you start from scratch every season, but we’re thankful for the success that we had this year.”‘
Buffalo falls short in post season once again at hands of Chiefs
‘The Buffalo Bills fell short in the AFC Championship against the Kansas City Chiefs by a score of 32-29. They fall short of the Super Bowl by one game and enter into the offseason to start all over again next summer.’
Opinion: Déjà vu all over again for Bills
‘Lucy pulled the football away at the last second again as Charlie Brown went to kick it, and Charlie, again, fell flat on his back.’
