Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins.

Beasley has been the Bills’ No. 2 receiver for most of the season behind star Stefon Diggs.

This is a huge break for the Dolphins, as they need to win on Sunday to guarantee a playoff spot.

Miami is currently the No. 5 seed in the AFC, but it could fall out of the playoff picture with a loss.

The Indianapolis Colts, Cleveland Browns, Tennessee Titans and Baltimore Ravens all hold 10-5 records as well and are hoping for a Dolphins’ loss on Sunday.

While Buffalo won’t be a pushover just because Beasley is out, his absence will do some damage to the Bills’ offense.

This season, he has 82 catches for 967 yards and four touchdowns. He has a knack for being able to move the chains on short yardage throws.

Miami is looking to get its first win against Buffalo this season. The Dolphins lost their Week 2 matchup, 31-28.
