Of course, there is a good chance that many vaccinated players will also test positive. Also, best wishes to Cole and hopefully he does not get very sick.

Either he's unhappy with the expectations of a PS player, or he's not himself anymore. Right, but he IS familiar with what we run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming what you said was what h Beasley said originally. I didn’t follow all his tweets. Just saying if everyone is going to pile it on Beasley because he got it when the vast majority in the NFL have been vaccinated and it’s spreading like wildfire amongst everyone. Hard to say he’s in any different position. I suppose we can wait and see how bad of symptoms he develops over the next few days and put his theory to test.

QB Bills Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Putting aside the fact he's dumber than a bag of rocks, I'd be happy never seeing him put on a Bills uniform again. He's so afraid of getting hit, he just falls down anytime he catches the ball. His biggest skill is making it look like he's falling/diving for a perfectly thrown ball so he won't have to run after the catch. Get this bum off the team asap. 2 4 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go sign brown just in Case Unless they've changed these rules too, believe any players signed that didn't just get cut i.e. came directly from another team environment, is required to quarantine for 10 days before joining the team. The way things are going they may have scaled that back too, but if not the earliest Brown could play would be Jan 1st?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF Bills Fan Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Beasley has been making clutch catches recently so this is bad news.

He is not worth the trouble going forward, particularly at his contract value. His production is replaceable. He is done with the Bills in my opinion.

Or, I don’t know, the bonkers number of people per day catching this. Very likely could have happened that way, will never know or came from on the outside. But if vaxxed, rules are more liberal. So do agree I think next year other than true superstars i.e. Aaron Rodgers, I think un-vaxxed players will have trouble finding a job in the NFL. Why would a team want the extra burden of higher likelihood of missing time? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the players in the NFL are vaccinated and now testing positive. So I think if anything Beasley’s point has more merit to be argued if anything. I don’t necessarily agree with it but I’m also not just looking to fling crap at someone because they don’t agree with me.
