Wide Receiver

New wide receivers John Brown and Cole Beasley, who signed with the Bills this offseason as free agents, made their presence known throughout the game. Early on it was Beasley who was targeted heavily and he finished with five receptions for 40 yards. However, he also had some drops, including one that bounced off him for an interception, and again in the fourth quarter.

Meanwhile, John Brown made it clear that he is the number one wide receiver in this offense and is more than just a deep threat. He finished with seven receptions for 123 yards and one touchdown.

The only other receiver that was involved was Zay Jones but he only had two receptions for 18 yards on five targets. It is clear that Jones is a distant third when looking at this wide receiver depth chart.

Grade: B+
