The team made the announcement on Twitter Tuesday. Beasley is second on the team in receptions with 76.
The Bills’ next matchup is a tough one — they take on the New England Patriots in Foxborough on Sunday at 1 p.m.
Beasley has been a frequent critic of the NFL’s COVID policies and as an unvaccinated player, is likely out for Sunday’s game as there is a 10 day waiting period for unvaccinated players who test positive.
Earlier this month, the Bills fell to the Patriots 14-10.
