Coleman caught three of four targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens.
Coleman dropped a deep ball in the first half but bounced back with a couple of nice catches along the sideline to finish 11 yards short of Khalil Shakir's team lead in receiving yards. The rookie Coleman is out of the doghouse after being benched for the first quarter in Week 3 due to being late to a meeting, but his ceiling heading into a Week 5 trip to Houston remains capped by his inability to create separation from defenders as well as the fact that the 2024 Bills love to spread the ball around.

Bills' Keon Coleman: Finds pay dirt on only target
Rotowire
Coleman scored a 24-yard touchdown on his only target in Monday's 47-10 win over the Jaguars.
Coleman has only one target over the last two games after drawing five looks in his NFL debut, but he made the most of his only opportunity Monday by finding paydirt. The rookie second-round pick has shown some nice ability on jump balls, but Buffalo has brought the 6-foot-4 Coleman along slowly while giving more playing time to wide receivers who have more blocking experience or shiftiness to get open underneath. Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News relays that Coleman was benched in the first quarter due to tardiness, but the team is ready to move forward. Coleman will hope to see an uptick in volume in a Week 4 road game against the Ravens.

Bills' Keon Coleman: Team's leading receiver in debut
Rotowire
Coleman caught four of five targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 34-28 win over the Cardinals.
Coleman led the team in targets and receiving yards in his NFL debut, but the rookie second-round pick was held out of the end zone while fellow Bills wide receivers Khalil Shakir and Mack Hollins both scored touchdowns. Most of Coleman's yardage came on a 28-yard contested catch in the fourth quarter, which got the ball down to the six-yard line and set up quarterback Josh Allen's second rushing touchdown of the game. Coleman and the Bills will have a short turnaround before facing the Dolphins in Miami on Thursday.

Bills' Keon Coleman: One catch in preseason opener
Rotowire
Coleman caught one of three targets for eight yards in Saturday's 33-6 preseason loss to the Bears.
Coleman didn't make much of a splash in his NFL debut, with his lone catch coming on a pass thrown by backup quarterback Mitch Trubisky. Coleman worked in with the starting wide receivers, but Josh Allen's pair of first-quarter completions went to Khalil Shakir and Curtis Samuel. Coleman's expected to play a significant role as a rookie in a Bills receiving corps that lost Stefon Diggs in the offseason, and the 2024 second-round pick out of Florida State will try to put forth a stronger showing in next Saturday's preseason game against the Steelers.

Bills' Keon Coleman: Inks rookie deal with Buffalo
Rotowire
Coleman signed a four-year rookie contract Wednesday, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Coleman, selected 33rd overall in April, has a good chance to be the team's No. 1 or No. 2 receiver right out of the gate, as the Bills lack a proven guy in the entire wideout corps after trading away Stefon Diggs and not re-signing Gabe Davis during the offseason. The Bills now have all 10 of their 2024 picks signed to deals.
