BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills activated wide receiver Cole Beasley from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday along with teammates Gabriel Davis, Vernon Butler and Star Lotulelei.
Despite testing negative for the COVID-19 virus, all four players were placed on the list after the NFL designated them close contacts of a vaccinated training staff member who tested positive for the virus Tuesday morning. Each player spent five days away from the facility, retroactive to their exposure.
Beasley also said he was fined $16,650 for failing to wear a mask during a brief walk within the team facility.
