Back-to-back clunkers Beasley caught just one of two targets for five yards in Buffalo's 38-20 win over Kansas City on Sunday night.
Impact Considering just how fantastic Beasley was all of last season and the early part of this one, managers have to be grossly disappointed seeing the Bills put up 78 points over the last two games and Beasley having a horrible 3-21-0 combined line over that span. Tight end Dawson Knox and veteran receiver Emmanuel Sanders have become major producers in this offense, and that's pushed down Stefon Diggs and Beasley from their normal levels of output. Beasley will have his days -- he's too much of a trusted target for Josh Allen not to -- as exhibited by his 11-98-0 line just before the two recent clunkers, but trying to figure out when exactly those games are going to hit will be a tough task, as the veteran slot man's output has been all over the board through five games.

Lowest output of season Beasley caught both of his targets for 16 yards in Sunday's win over the Texans.
Impact Reading too much into Beasley's disappointing output seems foolish in a 40-0 game, especially after he posted an 11-98-0 line Week 3. What shouldn't be ignored, however, is the emergence of Dawson Knox -- four TD catches in the last three games -- and the fact that Emmanuel Sanders is producing more than an injured John Brown was able to do last year. That means Beasley could be more of a hit-or-miss option in 2021 depending on game script, even though he's still the team's go-to slot receiver and is one of the NFL's best at short-space catches. Either way, we're pretty confident he'll be more involved in what could be a high-flying battle with the potent Chiefs this Sunday. Beasley has yet to find the end zone after posting four TD catches in the 2020 regular season.

Racks up catches in win Beasley secured 11 of 13 targets for 98 yards in the Bills' 43-21 win over Washington on Sunday.
Impact It was a prototypical Beasley stat line, with the veteran possession receiver not notching a catch longer than 22 yards and easily establishing a new season high in receptions along the way. Beasley also tied his high-water mark in targets, and he could wreak havoc once more against the Texans in a favorable Week 4 matchup.

Modest production in win Beasley caught all four of his targets for 36 yards during Sunday's win over the Dolphins.
Impact The pass-heavy Bills took control of the game early and were content to run the ball more than usual. Even with the addition of Emmanuel Sanders, Beasley still seems like the No. 2 option in the passing game, but there are a lot of mouths to feed even in this high-powered offense. Plus, running back Devin Singletary and tight end Dawson Knox simply look like better players this season. Beasley should maintain his value as a deep WR option, but it's hard to see much upside beyond that. Last season's 967 receiving yards may be tough to match.

Rests Wednesday Beasley received a rest day during Wednesday's practice.
Impact Beasley's day off may have been a needed mental break as well, as the Bills are coming off a tough loss, and he was booed by some of the crowd during Sunday's opener in light of his vocal stance about the COVID-19 vaccine. None of this should affect Beasley's role in the offense, as he's one of Josh Allen's favorite targets, and he drew a whopping 13 looks in the Week 1 loss. He should remain a big part of the game plan Sunday against the Dolphins, especially if Gabriel Davis (ankle) can't suit up or is limited.
