Once the playoffs start he'll be in a 90 day testing holiday so guaranteed not to miss due to Covid. Yeah good point. That and as long as he gets through it ok is about the only silver lining. Hopefully he will be one of those with mild or no symptoms 2

He’s gonna get flamed by the powers that be for that tweet but he’s honestly right…I’m sure there’s plenty of vaxxed players not getting tested that are positive 3

I thought Bease was irreplaceable last season, but the production hasn’t been there this year. When he has produced, he hasn’t looked like anything special. Plug McKenzie into the role, and see what he can do. 1

If he shines on Sunday, Beas may find his role drastically reduced. 2
HamptonBillsfan Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 59 minutes ago, Utah John said: Beasley last year was the guy who reliably and consistently moved the chains. This year, not so much. I don't know if he's lost a step or if defenses are playing him better or if the rotten O line is not giving Allen time to go through his progressions and find Beasley. But Knox (with some painful exceptions) seems to have developed into a good, move the chains, kind of TE. And we have McKenzie. So we can get by without Beasley. Just so you know, Cole has 76 receptions for 640 yds with 33 1st downs. He's played hurt most of the games and is a leader on the team. McKenzie has 7 catches and a devastating unforced fumble against Indy, that turned the game on its head. This guy takes a lot of abuse from fans for his incredible production. 1

I guess Twitter and Instagram will keep him busy until hes cleared to play football again. We are back to preseason Bills with half the team going off the rails on social media days before we play for the division title. 2

UKBillFan Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 Reports from the UK is that 90% of those in hospital being treated for Covid are unvaccinated. Good to hear Beasley is fine but the vaccination v treatment approach outlined his reply to Feliciano is stupid to put it mildly. Treatments take longer to implement and also means a hospital bed is taken up to carry them out. 1 1 1 1

Blaming the rules which he has been fully aware of all year is an interesting take on accountability.

I guarantee you they're focused on football and not debating health policy with nitwits. 2 2 1 2
Special K Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 The worst thing is it’s only Tuesday.....the thought of how many more players might be lost between now and Sunday is an unsettling one. 3

The NFL does not care about players infecting others. They have made that very clear by their new policy. All they care about is the PR. Completely agree. I'm vaxxed + booster, everyone's personal choice, but NFL is definitely not "equally treating" this situation. Guidance from all health experts is to self quarantine for 10 days, vaxxed or not, if testing positive. NFL is too greedy to enforce forfeits, as they said they would prior to season, so easiest solution for them is to handle this in an unfair fashion. Either: 1. Enforce positive test quarantine equally amongst all players/teams and enforce forfeits OR 2. Drop all testing and covid requirements Anything in the middle, is just that and provides unfair/inconsistent enforcement of said "rules". Im not advocating any side, just be fair and consistent. 2 1 1

All these guys use social media to defend their position. His teammates love him, he's not hurting us. No, they don't. Many of them are smarter than that. Hes not hurting the team? Fooled me. 1

What is Feliciano talking about? He was in the hospital? I thought he had an injury? Brutal Beasley is out let’s hope no more players test positive.

All well and good, but the poster indicated he was OK with McKenzie replacing Cole going forward because he wasn't having a good year.

They haven't treated unvaccinated and vaccinated players equally since the start. The complaints that Beasley has now were the same complaints he had in the offseason. Agree with it or not those have been the rules. All of the unvaccinated players have known they were at greater risk of missing games, irrespective of the vaccine's efficacy. 2
