Buffalo Bills’ Cole Beasley Fined $100k For Violating Multiple Protocols

Cole Beasely has just ended up with a huge hole in his pocket. The Buffalo Bills’ receiver is now knee deep in fines. While his initial violation had him fined a lot less, the cumulative fines now amount to a whopping $100,000.

Beasely’s fines are in response to his many COVID-19 violations. Buffalo Bills initially started fining Beasely when they received their COVID-19 protocols back in August.

Many teams reviewed their policies before the beginning of the 2021 season. The team observed that Beasely was not abiding by the vaccine protocols, and they fined him an amount of $14,600. The next violation came when the player was monitored via video cameras to be breaking the protocols.

Beasely had to pay double the amount after the violation, which has happened more than once. According to sources secured by ESPN, Beasely could be looking at paying $10,000 to league officials.

The player ended up contracting COVID-19, but he isn’t losing any money because of it. While he was absent in the Bills game against New England Patriots, the NFL and NFLPA agreement allows players to miss out on games in case of COVID-19. The player’s base salary remains to be $4.7 million, and he will still get his game check for $261,111.
