Buffalo Bills running back James Cook and defensive lineman Ed Oliver are expected to play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, head coach Sean McDermott said Friday.

Cook missed his first game in three seasons in Week 6 due to a toe injury. He was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday but was upgraded to a full participant on Thursday.

Rookie running back Ray Davis was the Buffalo's primary ball carrier in Cook's absence. The Kentucky product racked up 152 yards on 23 touches in the club's victory over the New York Jets, but his status is up in the air for Week 7 due to a calf ailment.

Oliver, 26, has missed the last two games due to a hamstring injury. He has six tackles and one sack in four games this season.

McDermott added that he thinks newly acquired wide receiver Amari Cooper will suit up on Sunday, but a firm decision on his playing status has yet to be determined.
