Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley took to Twitter on Thursday night to express his dissatisfaction with the COVID-19 protocols agreed to by the NFL and the NFL Players Association, calling the union a "joke.".

The league and the NFLPA announced Wednesday they have lifted restrictions for fully vaccinated players while continuing strict protocols for those who are unvaccinated. This includes daily testing, social distancing and wearing masks during travel and at team facilities for unvaccinated players?

Vaccinated players will not have to follow the same restrictions, essentially returning to normal life as long as they are with other vaccinated individuals?

Vaccinated players can go out the hotel and bring covid back in to where I am.

Everyone gives me the 98 percent of people who are vaccinated don’t get covid again.

While vaccinated players are permitted to leave the team hotel and interact with vaccinated people outside the organization while traveling, unvaccinated players will not be afforded the same luxury.

While the NFL and NFLPA have encouraged players to receive COVID-19 vaccinations, results have been mixed with some teams approaching 75% or better vaccination rates and others far off. Both sides continue to educate players and coachecs about the benefits of being vaccinated
