Cole Beasley and Isaiah McKenzie recently got handed down some hefty punishments for the NFL for breaking Covid protocol, and they aren’t happy at all.

Beasley was strongly against getting the vaccine right from the start of things as he sent out a public service announcement of sorts saying he would choose what to do with his body, no matter what the NFL was going to say about it.

While the NFL isn’t mandating vaccines at the moment, making Beasley’s decision perfectly fine, they aren’t allowing unvaccinated players to have the same freedoms that vaccinated ones have, something Isaiah McKenzie and Beasley found out.

So, what exactly are the NFL protocols for unvaccinated players? Well, they’re required to have masks on indoors in team facilities, and they’re required to go through regular testing.

It appears that McKenzie and Beasley both broke the mask protocols by removing their face coverings inside Bills training facilities during training camp. McKenzie even went on to share the letter he got from the NFL on Twitter, with a sarcastic and annoyed response.

Beasley further quote-tweeted the same message after he got a similar letter, calling the NFL out for not having rules that make sense as a trainer who was vaccinated recently tested positive for Covid-19 but was still in close proximity with Beasley.

The punishment is also very harsh. For now, the NFL has decided to fine both players $14, but they could be subject to more severe punishment in the future.
