5 Bills the Denver Broncos need to worry about on Saturday
By Noah Smith
5. Cole Beasley
Cole Beasley has proven to be one of the premier slot weapons in the NFL and has become a go-to guy for Josh Allen. Beasley will be a pest for the Broncos’ defense and could pose a huge problem for them.
Beasley is incredibly shifty and quick and can uncover from nearly any one-on-one coverage. The Broncos will likely assign Will Parks to cover Beasley in the slot, with some help from the linebacker in the underneath zones.

Not allowing Beasley to feast after the catch will be a key to slowing him down. The Broncos will need to make sure they take Beasley to the ground and emphasize a firm tackle over stripping the ball.
Beasley is just one of the Bills’ many weapons, and could easily run wild in the Broncos’ patchwork secondary. However, if the Denver Broncos can take away Josh Allen’s go-to guy, the Broncos will have a chance to steal a win over the red-hot Bills.
