The Buffalo Bills have a top-10 running back duo in the NFL.
According to CBS Sports, the pairing of James Cook and Ray Davis in Buffalo's backfield is deserving of praise. The outlet named the top-10 running back duos in the NFL heading into the 2026 season and the Bills' pair lands at No. 9 overall.
Leading the way on CBS Sports' list is Bijan Robinson and Brian Robinson Jr. (Atlanta Falcons), followed by Jahmyr Gibbs and Isiah Pacheco (Detroit Lions) and Derrick Henry and Justice Hill (Baltimore Ravens).
Rounding out the top-four duos is the only AFC East team ahead of the Bills, the New England Patriots Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.
CBS Sports' breakdown on the Bills' duo at ninth-overall can be found below:
9. James Cook and Ray
Davis, Bills
Cook comes off his best-career season, having registered a personal-best (by a lot) 309 carries for a league-leading 1,621 yards, along with 12 touchdowns. He also contributed in the passing game with 33 receptions for 291 yards and two scores. He got up to a 56% snap rate, another career high, with both Davis and Ty Johnson rotating in behind him. Johnson actually played more snaps than Davis did last year, but he's getting up there in age at this point and Davis' underlying metrics like success rate and yards both before and after contact improved last season, so we're betting that under a new head coach, he can take over a larger role this year than the one he had under Sean McDermott. (Joe Brady was the offensive coordinator last year but things can still change when you move into the top job).
