ORCHARD PARK, N.Y.(AP) — The Buffalo Bills provided Josh Allen and their inconsistent passing attack yet another veteran option by signing free agent wide receiver Brandin Cooks on Tuesday.

Cooks joins the Bills after the New Orleans Saints granted the player’s wish by waiving him last week. And his signing comes two weeks after Buffalo added veteran wideout Mecole Hardman, who landed on injured reserve because of a calf injury sustained in his Bills debut.

Cooks is in his 12th NFL season and brings a downfield threat element to a Bills passing game that has experienced difficulty pushing the ball deep this season. His signing also represents another indication of Bills general manager Brandon Beane not being content with his receivers after backing them for much of the season .
