Bills decline comment, while RB Cook cites 'business' as reason he didn't participate in practice
PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills aren't commenting on the reason behind James Cook not participating in practice on Sunday in what could be viewed as the running back's next step in escalating his bid to extend the final year of his contract. Cook, who watched the two-hour session from the sideline in an all-white track suit, was not included in a lengthy list of injured players coach Sean McDermott provided reporters before practice. While the Bills declined comment on the player's status in a text to The Associated Press, Cook reiterated the word 'business' numerous times following practice in explaining his status to reporters from The Buffalo News and ESPN. 'Business,' was Cook's one-word response when asked if it was his choice to not practice, The Buffalo News reported. As for whether he anticipated practicing on Monday, Cook said: 'Business. That's all I'm going to say. Business.' Messages left with Cook's representatives were not returned. A second-round pick in the 2022 draft, Cook was the NFL's co-leader with 16 touchdowns rushing in his second full season as a starter. The 25-year-old has made no secret this offseason of his desire for a new contract that would pay him in the range of $15 million a year in what would make him among the league's highest-paid players at his position. Though Cook skipped all of the team's voluntary sessions this spring, he had previously taken part in each of the Bills mandatory practices, including their first eight of training camp before Sunday. Cook said 'I like my money, that's why I'm here,' upon reporting for Buffalo's three-day mandatory camp in June. He provided a similar answer to open training camp, while insisting he's confident he'll get his payday whether it's in Buffalo or elsewhere. Cook said he didn't want his contract situation to become a distraction. Bills general manager Brandon Beane opened camp by saying the two sides remained in contact. He reiterated how he wanted nothing more than to reach an agreement while acknowledging the team had limited room under the salary cap. ___ AP NFL:

Stowers homers as Marlins beat Yankees 7-3 to earn first sweep of New York in club history
MIAMI (AP) — Kyle Stowers hit a three-run homer and the Miami Marlins completed the first sweep of the New York Yankees in franchise history a 7-3 victory on Sunday. The Marlins (55-55) won all three games against the Yankees (60-52) to reach .500 for the first time since April 15. They became the first major league team to go from 16 or more games under .500 to a .500 record since the Rays in 2014. Stowers made it 6-1 when he connected on an 0-2 fastball from Brent Headrick, who entered in the fourth with two on after starter Luis Gil (0-1) was lifted 3 1/3 innings into his season debut. Gil, the reigning AL Rookie of the Year, struck out three and surrendered five runs and five hits while issuing four walks in his return from a high-grade lat strain. He threw 77 pitches. Marlins starter Edward Cabrera (5-5) pitched six innings of two-hit ball with seven strikeouts and one walk. His only blemish came against the first batter he faced. Trent Grisham drove Cabrera's 98.1 mph four-seam fastball to right-center. Miami rookie Jakob Marsee, who made his major league debut on Friday, was 2-for-4 and finished a single short of the cycle. Jazz Chisholm Jr. launched a two-run homer off Josh Simpson that pulled New York within 6-3 in the seventh, as 'Let's go Yankees!' chants erupted at loanDepot Park. Marsee then ripped an RBI triple to center in the bottom half that stretched the lead to four. Xavier Edwards had two hits, including an RBI single. Troy Johnston had a run-scoring double. Key moment The Marlins honored former manager Jack McKeon before the game. McKeon, 94, guided Miami to its 2003 World Series win over the Yankees. Key stat Miami is 24-24 against the Yankees, including the postseason, becoming the only franchise the Yankees don't have a winning record against. Up next Marlins RHP Sandy Alcantara (6-9, 6.36) pitches the opener of a three-game series against the Houston Astros. Yankees LHP Max Fried (12-4, 2.62) starts the opener of a three-game series at the Texas Rangers. ___ AP MLB:

White Sox place INF Miguel Vargas on IL with oblique strain
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — The Chicago White Sox placed infielder Miguel Vargas on the 10-day injured list on Sunday because of a left oblique strain. Vargas, 25, was scratched from Saturday night's 1-0 victory at the Angels. Vargas, who was acquired from the Dodgers as part of a three-team trade in July 2024, is batting .229 with 13 homers and 44 RBIs in 106 games. The White Sox also recalled infielder Curtis Mead from Triple-A Charlotte before their series finale against the Angels. Left-hander Bryan Hudson and right-hander Elvis Peguero were claimed off waivers from Milwaukee and assigned to Charlotte. Mead, 24, came over when the White Sox traded right-hander Adrian Houser to Tampa Bay on Thursday. He hit .226 with three homers and eight RBIs in 49 games with the Rays this year. ___ AP MLB: and AP auto racing:
