It seems that former Buffalo Bills wide receiver Brandin Cooks still hasn't gotten over his non-catch against the Denver Broncos in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs last season.
“I will continue to process it until I get back on the field, but I think the biggest thing I can say is that I still feel like it was a catch," Cooks told The Athletic's Tim Graham.
Facing 3rd-and-11 at his own 36-yard line with the game tied at 30-30, Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw a deep pass intended for Cooks, who initially appeared to catch it before Broncos cornerback Ja'Quan McMillian ripped it out of his hands. McMillian came away with the ball and officials ruled it an interception, a decision the NFL has backed.
After that takeaway, Denver later kicked a field goal to secure a 33-30 win. Cooks, 32, is currently an unsigned free agent. If he doesn't land another contract, that turnover will mark the final play of his NFL career.
