Buffalo general manger Brandon Beane -- during the second episode of Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Buffalo Bills, which premiered Tuesday night -- made it clear he wants running back James Cook staying put,

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook has been a training camp hold-in with No. 4 wanting a new contract before stepping foot on the practice field, and so far, he’s been a bystander. Cook didn’t even participate in warm-ups prior to the first preseason game against the New York Giants as he still awaited a new contract.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook was back on the field with teammates on Tuesday, a welcome sign amid a continued contract dispute with the team. Cook’s return followed a series of hold-ins that saw him miss the final week of training camp at St. John Fisher University and Buffalo’s first preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
