TAMPA, Fla. — Veteran receiver Cole Beasley’s tenure with the Bucs is ending after two games.
The team confirmed Wednesday that Beasley, 33, has opted to retire — effective immediately — reportedly to devote more time to his family. NFL Network first reported Beasley’s departure.
Following his Tampa Bay debut two Sundays ago against the Packers, Beasley — a married dad of three — spoke of the surreal nature of watching his two sons play flag football and T-ball one weekend, and catching spirals from Tom Brady the next.
