With new COVID-19 protocols taking center stage in the 2021 NFL offseason, known anti-vaxxer and Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley has come out via twitter and publicly state his view on the current situation in a string of wild tweets.
It all started when Jerry Hughes responded to Darius Butler on his view of the new memo.

Then, Bills receiver Cole Beasley showed up to the party.

Then after, he would continue by re-tweeting posts of Robert W. Malone, who's research has been used by anti-vaxxers to support the idea to not get the vaccine.
10) the noble lie is-
a. we have to reach herd immunity for economic recovery and to minimize death and disability
b. these genetic vaccines are the only path available to herd immunity
c. these genetic vaccines are perfectly safe
Each of these statements are demonstrably false.— Robert W Malone, MD (@RWMaloneMD) July 19, 2021
He would go on to respond to other people tweets with one in particular targeted to Chris Rongey.

After the Bills talent was asked to retire, Cole Beasley came out and stated the following:
I don’t want to retire. I’ll have to be cut. Otherwise I’m playing ball.

Then he posted this piece of fake information.

Finally, he solidified his position against the vaccine when he said the following:
I get it. But I’m not sacrificing something I believe in for wins and money. I want to win as much as anybody. But I’m not gonna change who I am to accomplish that. There are a ton of players who are with me but can’t speak out because of their situation within the organization.

As other players such as Deandre Hopkins, Jalen Ramsey and Leonard Fournette coming out against the idea of forcing vaccines to players, Cole Beasley has continued to spread false information about the COVID-19 vaccines and has made some very confusing statements on the situation. With the NFL season starting just months away, it is yet known what the Buffalo Bills will do with Cole Beasley.
If you are able to, please get the COVID-19 vaccine. And if you are not able to get the vaccine, please continue to wear a mask and follow all COVID-19 protocols.
