New coach Joe Brady acknowledged this week that Cook’s workload was high after the running back took 309 carries over 17 regular-season games, and the coach discussed the potential of sharing the load a bit more this season, Chris Brown of the Bills’ official site reports. Said Brady, “I don’t think you ever go into each game with a mindset of, ‘This is how many carries he’s going to have.’ But it does pile up throughout the season, and I give him a lot of credit. I would love to be able to get Ray (Davis), Ty (Johnson), Frank (Gore Jr.) those guys involved and I hope those opportunities come up this year. James was just playing at such a high level last year. And this year again we’re looking at everything.”
