The Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots’ Week 18 contest to conclude the 2024 NFL regular season will not be a memorable game. It was be one of those for James Cook. The Bills (13-4) lost a 23-16 final in the meaningless contest for them against the Patriots (4-13). Many starters took the day off such as quarterback Josh Allen.

Cook still had something to play for one touchdown shy of tying Simpson's record. He was given four carries inside the Patriots' 15-yard line on Buffalo's second possession, including one from the 1-yard line, but was unable to get into the end zone.

James Cook has tied the franchise record for rushing touchdowns with a 1-yard score midway through the third quarter.

It was Cook’s 16th rushing touchdown of the season, tying the mark set by O.J. Simpson back in 1975.

Running back James Cook's 16th TD run of 2024 ties the Buffalo Bills' single-season record in that category. New York Giants' kicker Graham Gano gets the Giants' first points vs. the Philadelphia Eagles on a 25-yard field goal.
