The Bills add an All-Pro before the playoffs

The Buffalo Bills are getting a boost from an All-Pro wide receiver in the playoffs. The Bills will play the Miami Dolphins on Sunday in the Wild Card round. The Bills, who have two wide receivers on injured reserve, needed to bump up a playmaker for quarterback Josh Allen in the postseason.

According to Ian Rapoport with the NFL Network, the Bills signed Cole Beasley from the practice squad to the active roster so he can play in the playoffs.

Beasley, who played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season but retired, came out of retirement in December to join the Bills practice squad. The Bills elevated him in weeks 15 and 16 against the Dolphins and Chicago Bears, respectively. Beasley caught one pass for nine yards in each of those games.

We’ll see if he has a more active role for the Bills in the postseason. Beasley earned second-team All-Pro honors for 2020 when he had 967 yards receiving and four touchdowns with the Bills.
