The Buffalo Bills have brought in another veteran to improve their situation at wide receiver, this time with general manager Brandon Beane signing Brandin Cooks to the 53-man roster on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Today\u2019s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off with observations on the signing and explores what Cooks, 32, could bring to Buffalo\u2019s passing offense over the rest of the season.<\/p>\n
What can Brandin Cooks bring to offense?<\/p>\n
In 10 games this year with the New Orleans Saints, Cooks caught 19 passes for 165 yards, but with recent addition Mecole Hardman Jr. being placed on Injured Reserve, the team had a need at wide receiver, and Beane is hoping Cooks can rediscover the form that saw him post six career 1,000-yard seasons in his decorated career.<\/p>\n
Veteran Shaq Lawson returning to Buffalo<\/p>\n
With the Bills dealing with plenty of injuries along their defensive line, the team brought back a familiar face to provide depth: former first-round draft pick Shaq Lawson, who will be making his third stint with the Bills since being selected No. 19 overall in the 2016 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n
