And there was a welcomed face taking part. The Bills have full attendance at the workouts, meaning running back James Cook took part. The Pro Bowl running back has been skipping OTA workouts as he wants a new contract, but when required, he is there. During the second day of practice on Wednesday, highlights were shared to social media. A roundup of those can be found below: Day 2: Bills minicamp Day 2: Bills minicamp He failed to secure a couple of receptions Wednesday, but do not allow that to detract from the fact that WR Keon Coleman has put on a show this offseason.

Bo Nix's situation 'entirely different' going into 2nd season
New year, new Bo? Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix earned an invite to the Pro Bowl as an alternate last year after surpassing 4,200 yards from scrimmage and scoring 34 touchdowns as a rookie. Nix struggled early, but once he adjusted to the pro game, the QB looked sharp and helped the Broncos qualify for the playoffs for the first time since 2015. Advertisement Now, with 17 games in the NFL under his belt, Nix's command of the offense is at a different level. 'It's a lot different," Broncos coach Sean Payton said last Thursday when asked what's different with Nix going into his second season. "We don't use that term, 'Pick up where we left off,' but just the processing [and] understanding of what we're doing in and out of the huddle. These three days — as you're watching each decision, [the throws are] where you want the ball to go. I think it's entirely different.' Nix has a better grasp of the offense, and it's clear that he's no longer a rookie. DNVR's Zac Stevens observed at last week's open practice that Nix was coaching up teammates more often than he did in 2024. "I feel like I'm a lot further [along]," Nix said last week. "Just spitting out play calls a lot easier and just processing. ... It's a lot better and a lot more enjoyable not thinking right now as opposed to what I was doing last year. It's fun, it's fun to be in the know and it's fun to have a little more of an understanding of what's going on so I can be a little more beneficial to others and help them out along the way." Advertisement Nix later noted that, unlike last year, when he gets to the line of scrimmage now, he's looking at the defense and processing and reacting to them instead of thinking about the offensive play or his footwork or a motion. His offensive responsibilities are second nature now, allowing him to focus on attacking the defense on each play. "I feel good," Nix said. "We're in a good spot.'

Vikings Make Announcement About Key Player Return After Long Injury Absence
Vikings Make Announcement About Key Player Return After Long Injury Absence originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Minnesota Vikings lost a key piece of their offense in Week 8 of the 2024 NFL season. Left tackle Christian Darrisaw, the team's first-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, had only missed a handful of games in his young career up until that point. Advertisement Unfortunately, during the Vikings' 30-20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 8, Darrisaw suffered a serious knee injury, tearing his ACL and MCL, which would sideline him for the remainder of the season. However, the Vikings received a huge update concerning their starting offensive tackle as a post to social media showed Darrisaw back at practice and participating in individual drills. At the time of the Virginia Tech alumnus' placement onto injured reserve, Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell noted that "he's clearly one of our offensive pillars that we have leaned on a lot, and it's going to be a significant loss. But we've all got to do a little bit more." Advertisement Over his first three seasons in the NFL, Darrisaw played in 41 games, but his injury-shortened 2024 only allowed him to play in seven contests. In that limited timeframe, Darrisaw graded 81.4 on Pro Football Focus, ranking 11th out of 140 tackles. Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O' Hanisch-Imagn Images In July 2024, Darrisaw signed a massive contract extension, linking him to the Vikings through the 2029 season. The deal added four years at $104 million to his existing contract. Based on annual average salary, the 26-year-old is the fourth-highest-paid tackle. Minnesota is in the first day of mandatory minicamp and will extend to June 12. From June 16 to 18, the Vikings will reconvene for voluntary organized team activities. Advertisement Related: J.J.
