Cook was not in BUF
The agent for Denver quarterback Jay Cutler and Denver tight end Tony Scheffler was not in Buffalo on Monday, according to his assistant.
Cook was in his office in Hattiesburg, Miss., all day yesterday and is there again today, his assistant reports. A local radio report Monday night said Cook was in Buffalo.
It's hard to imagine an agent such as Cook coming to visit a team unless it was in the very last stages of closing a deal. Furthermore, while the Broncos have been reported to be shopping Scheffler on the trade market, sources in Denver say they have not granted the tight end permission to seek a trade on his own. So any team that would talk to Cook about Scheffler would be tampering, presuming no permission has been granted.
So while the power of the internet rolls on, we will wait today to see what comes out of Marshawn Lynch's meeting in New York with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. The expectation is no ruling will be handed down today, but the NFL should have some type of comment on the situation.
