Cole Beasley Explains Why He Kept Playing During The Playoffs With Broken Fibula

Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley ended the AFC Championship Game with a team-high seven catches and 88 yards -- and a broken fibula. In fact, Beasley had been playing through the broken fibula since Week 16 against the Patriots, according to Bills sideline reporter Sal Capaccio.

"I wasn't going to miss the playoffs, especially after having to watch Week 17," Beasley said of his situation, adding that he "felt it a bit" against the Colts but that the fibula didn't cause him too many problems against the Ravens and the Chiefs.

“Take a few meds & suck it up,” the wide receiver said of his predicament. "There was no way I was gonna miss a playoff game."








Beasley racked up 14 catches and 145 yards after suffering the broken fibula.

"They (Chiefs) just played better than us yesterday," Beasley told members of the media on Monday. "They beat us. We didn't play our best ball, but they took it too us. They aren't going anywhere but we aren't either."
