Quarterback Josh Allen was among members of the Bills that were through the roof explaining how impressive it was for wide receiver Cole Beasley to play through injury.
On Monday via video conference from Bills locker cleanout day, Beasley revealed what exactly happened when he was injured.
In Week 16 against the Patriots toward the end of the game, Beasley took a knock near his knee. The slot receiver revealed that the injury was a broken fibula, a bone in the lower leg.
Somehow, Beasley managed that pain and then downplayed the injury when discussing the difficulties of playing through it.
“It was bad the first game I played, but after that… it’s kind of, you take a few meds and suck it up,” Beasley said.
The thing that seemed to bother the 31-year-old the most was actually missing playing time in Week 16.
“No, I mean, I knew the next game was probably out of the question,” Beasley said. “There was no way I was going to miss the playoff game.”
