Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley, who is unvaccinated, will miss Sunday's big game against the Patriots because of a positive COVID test.

Beasley sent a message out via social media Tuesday night, which said he's not missing the game because of COVID, rather the rules the NFL has put into place.

"Just to be clear, Covid is not keeping me out of this game. The rules are. Vaxxed players are playing with Covid every week now because they don't test," his social media post began.

Beasley also pointed out how one of his teammates, Jon Feliciano, spent time in the emergency room recently because of COVID.

This week the NFL changes its rules regarding testing where unvaccinated players are still tested every day, while vaccinated players only are tested at random.

Also, the new rules make it easier for vaccinated players to return, while unvaccinated players must sit out 10 days.

Below is his post in full.
