Josh Allen led the Buffalo Bills to a victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in their most recent matchup during the NFL season.

The Bills defeated the Chiefs 28-21 in Week 9 of the NFL season and are now preparing for a matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

As the Bills prepare for their next matchup against the Dolphins, all eyes on the injury report, which has featured one of Buffalo's biggest stars.

James Cook has been dealing with a foot injury. While he's been active with the Bills, Buffalo announced that Cook missed practice on Wednesday.

The Bills will monitor the foot and ankle injuries from James Cook to determine his final status for the Miami Dolphins game in Week 10 of the NFL season.

James Cook has established himself as one of the best running backs in the NFL over the past several years, working in the backfield alongside reigning MVP, Josh Allen.

While Allen leads the offense as the team's starting quarterback, Cook has had another stellar season, posting seven touchdowns and 867 yards this season.

If James Cook were to be sidelined against the Miami Dolphins, the Buffalo Bills will rely on Josh Allen, who has been a star for his team in the pass and run game.

Throughout the 2025 season with the Bills, Allen has posted 13 touchdowns and 1,833 yards with a 70.4 completion percentage. Allen has also added seven touchdowns and 280 yards on the ground for the Bills.
