The Buffalo Bills haven't solved their problem with with running back James Cook, who is seeking a new contract as he enters the final year of his rookie deal.But maybe we should politely request that ESPN not sound foolish alarms regarding its progree reports.

Cook, 25, has skipped the team’s voluntary offseason program, including workouts in April and OTAs on May 27–29, June 2, and June 5. He was the only Bills player absent in May, as 89 of 90 players were in attendance. The team’s mandatory minicamp, scheduled for June 10–12, looms as another key moment in the negotiation timeline.

The impasse between the Buffalo Bills and running back James Cook over his desire for a new contract reportedly won't be ending anytime soon.
