Cole Beasley unhappy he’s being boo’d at home: ‘I thought Bills fans were the best in the world?’
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley felt the need to get something off his chest on Monday.
The Bills (3-1) are fresh off a 40-0 demolition of the Houston Texans. Beasley had two catches in the win.
However, Beasley says he’s unhappy with Bills Mafia attending games in Orchard Park.
According to the wide receiver, Buffalo fans are booing him at home games this season and he’s upset about it. Beasley also thinks his stance toward the COVID-19 vaccination is playing a part:
Only place I get boo’d is at our home stadium. Then some of the same people want me to take pictures and sign autographs. I thought bills fans were the best in the world? Where’d they go? If the vaccine works then why do vaxxed people need to be protected from unvaxxed? #letemin

Since the offseason, Beasley has been the most outspoken NFL player in terms of taking a stance against the vaccination for COVID-19. Beasley made a statement at the start of Bills training camp to declare that he’s “pro choice,” not against anything.
That came after Beasley went toe-to-toe with people on his social media page via Twitter throughout the offseason to debate requirements for taking the vaccine.
Currently in Buffalo, the Bills are requiring fans have at least one vaccination shot to attend games. Considering that, many in the crowd likely have the opposite views on the topic as him.
Since training camp, Beasley has mostly been quiet on his Twitter account. He’s dropped a few messages, but nothing as head-turning as showing he’s upset with Bills fans.
Beasley even took another step further to clarify that… nope, he does not think the crowd is yelling “Bease” as a nickname, either. He hears boos and folks calling him out for his vaccination stance.
Some are. Then I got some right behind the bench yelling at me to get vaccinated and talking shit. https://t.co/OrlO3AToSX

It remains to be seen if the team itself takes any stance on Beasley speaking out once again. Some in Buffalo’s locker room, including head coach Sean McDermott, are in favor of people getting vaccinated and have said so publicly.
The coach has also said such stances won’t have an affect on team unity and to his point… it hasn’t thus far.
But it’s still likely not the best time for Beasley to be doing so.
