The NFL All-Pro first and second team selections were announced on Saturday, Jan. 10. Buffalo Bills running backs James Cook III and Ray Davis ran their way to All-Pro teams on offense and special teams, respectively.
Ray Davis, First-Team All-Pro Special Teams
Davis also earned recognition for his success on special teams in 2025. He returned 31 kickoffs in the regular season for 943 yards and one touchdown. This made up a majority of his 1,304 all-purpose yards, including his rushing statistics on offense.
In Week 12 against the Texans, Davis returned a kickoff from the three-yard-line all the way into Houston's end zone for a 97-yard score. This happened with just under two minutes left of the first half when Buffalo was down 13-9.
Davis' 30.4 yards per kick return ranked first in the NFL.
"It's a blessing. It's an honor just to show the hard work that I was able to put in throughout the summer, throughout the offseason," Davis said. "A season hasn't been the way that I thought it was going to be, but I had to embrace it and just find a role where these guys could really trust me. It's a saying that I always love to say, but 'They tried to write me off, but I chose to never write back.' And that's something that I had to just focus on and pay attention to myself, look the guy in the mirror and go, 'Do you love this sport?' And if you love it, you're going to go out there and show it."
James Cook III, Second-Team All-Pro Running Back
Cook led the Bills to the No. 1 rushing team in the NFL and earned the rushing title, leading running backs in the regular season in rushing yards. He logged 309 carries for 1,621 yards and 12 touchdowns. He was third in carries, tied sixth in rushing scores and ranked second in average yards per carry (5.2) by the conclusion of Week 18.
Week 8 against the Panthers was Cook's best performance in terms of rushing yards. He registered his only 200-plus yard performance of the 2025 season with 216 rushing yards on 19 carries. He also had two touchdowns in that game. This was one of nine contests he had 100 or more yards on the ground.
This is Cook's first NFL All-Pro team honors of his career.
