Expand Well, McD has flat out denied your theory. I was never worried about Beasley missing the playoffs anyway. I think Stills has more to do with Davis than Beasley. McD likely values the veteran experience over the rookie who’s still finding his way. Edited January 1, 2021 by Bangarang

Expand Might be difficult to find an 'exact' replacement for Beasley, so they might be thinking, get the best WR available right now. 1
balln Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 davis has had insane production for a rookie / or even as a #4 (3 due to brown injury) WR on any team. period

Not sure the status of the players the Bills have been dealing, but it may effect things. Before this new ruling, a player cut or unsigned after a tryout had to wait six days to join a new club, which made it tough for teams with injuries to get someone ready to play the next week. Now they can sign with a team provided the player doesn't miss test, travels privately and then passes a rapid test.

Read through again - there is a MANDATORY 5 day COVID testing before any FA is allowed to meet or sign with a team. I don’t know if Stills will sign, but stop being obstinate that the reason is because he has not signed yet. Based upon Schefter’s tweet and 5 days - the earliest Stills can sign is Sunday or more likely Monday of next week after physicals. Edited January 1, 2021 by Rochesterfan

It's a little easier to sign a player now, subject to conditions. 1

Expand That change helps the Saints sign Kumerow, but it doesn't help us with any of the guys we've signed since they are not "current in the testing cadance". Likewise Stills, hasn't been in the testing cadence since November 4
