Buffalo Bills Excludes Cole Beasley

ORCHARD PARK, NY – The Buffalo Bills have ruled out wide receiver Cole Beasley for their game Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, following a knee injury he suffered in Week 16 against the New England Patriots.

Beasley, the team’s second leading receiver, left Buffalo’s win over New England late in the fourth quarter and did not return. Coach Sean McDermott called Beasley ‘week-to-week’. The Bills are hosting their first playoff game in 25 years next weekend.

In his second year with the Bills, Beasley set career highs with 967 yards and 82 catches on 107 targets. If he were to lose him for a long time, Buffalo would be left without his top receiver, but the Bill did activate the wide receiver John Brown from the reserve / COVID-19 list.

The Houston Chronicle first reported that Buffalo will sign the big receiver Kenny Stills once he approves COVID-19 protocols, but McDermott does not mention the Bill’s interest in Stills is unrelated to Beasley’s injury.
