Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley spent the first seven years of his career with the Dallas Cowboys, so it's probably safe to assume that he knows a thing or two about the Cowboys' offense.
Beasley, who left Dallas to sign with the Bills via free agency earlier this offseason, said that he expects to get used more in Buffalo because the Cowboys “didn't value the slot position like they do here,” according to Tim Graham of The Athletic. Beasley added that that was “a big reason why I left.”
Well, apparently, Beasley's former teammate, Dez Bryant, agrees, taking to Twitter to voice his opinion.
“Well he’s not wrong so don’t criticize him for being honest… he didn’t say not one negative thing about the boys,” wrote Bryant.
Bryant spent six years as Beasley's teammate from 2012 through 2017.
Beasley is coming off of a 2018 campaign in which he played all 16 games and hauled in 65 receptions for 672 yards and three touchdowns, easily representing one of the two most productive seasons of his career.
The 30-year-old, who played his collegiate football at Southern Methodist, went undrafted but eventually landed with the Cowboys in 2012. He went on to log 15 catches for 128 yards in his first season, and in his second year, he became a larger part of the offense, catching 39 passes for 368 yards and a couple of scores.
Beasley's best season in Dallas came in 2016, when he snared 75 balls for 833 yards while reaching the end zone five times.
Overall, Beasley only caught 50 passes three times during his seven-year stint in Dallas.
