Keon Coleman is Considered Questionable for Week 4
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (ankle) is listed as questionable on the team's official injury report ahead of the Week 4 matchup against the New England Patriots. Coleman missed Wednesday's practice before getting in back-to-back limited sessions to wrap up the week. It seems like he'll likely play through the issue, but fantasy managers will have a better idea soon. Coleman had a strong six-catch performance in Week 2, but he has been invisible outside of that. Fellow wideout DJ Moore (shoulder) is active, so Coleman will probably take a backseat to him this weekend.

Keon Coleman Will Play Against Chargers
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (ankle) is officially active for the Week 3 contest on Sunday against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers after being listed as questionable on the final injury report on Friday. Additionally, the Bills will have receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) active after he suffered an AC joint sprain in his shoulder in the Week 2 win over the Detroit Lions. It is good news for quarterback Josh Allen as the Bills look to start the year 3-0. Coleman was only going to be a flex option in deeper fantasy football leagues if he was active and Moore was ruled out. The 23-year-old former second-round pick in 2024 from Florida State caught all six of his targets for 63 yards in the win over the Lions after Moore exited the game. Now that Moore is back, it will be hard to trust Coleman for consistent production against the Chargers as the WR3 behind Moore and Khalil Shakir. In the Week 1 win over the Houston Texans, Coleman caught his only target for one yard.

Keon Coleman Expected to Play in Week 3
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (ankle) is expected to play in Sunday's Week 3 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers despite being listed as questionable, according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. The 23-year-old missed back-to-back practices before returning to log a limited session on Friday. After two very modest seasons to open his career, Coleman is trying to get back on track as a fantasy-relevant option under new head coach Joe Brady. He had a quiet Week 1, but he filled in admirably last week for DJ Moore (shoulder) with six catches and 63 yards. Coleman has managed to catch all seven of his targets this season, offering a reliable target for quarterback Josh Allen. If Moore, who is questionable, ends up playing on Sunday, it will be tougher to justify starting Coleman in fantasy football. However, if Moore is sidelined, Coleman should step up as a WR3/flex with additional upside.

Keon Coleman Could See More Work if Active
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman bounced back from a one-catch, one-yard opener by catching all six of his targets for 63 yards against Detroit. His own availability is now the issue. Coleman missed practice Wednesday and Thursday with an ankle injury before returning on a limited basis Friday, and he is officially questionable. Head coach Joe Brady said both Coleman and DJ Moore will be game-time decisions. If Coleman plays, the six-target Week 2 performance gives fantasy managers something more encouraging to work with than his opener did. There is still plenty of competition for looks from Moore, Khalil Shakir and Dalton Kincaid. RotoBaller ranks Coleman as the WR65 for Week 3, keeping him outside the normal flex range. His value rises if Moore sits, but Coleman is still better suited for deeper leagues if the full receiving group is available.

Keon Coleman Questionable to Play With Ankle Injury
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Friday but is questionable to play in Week 3 on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers, according to the team. Coleman came away from the Week 2 win over the Detroit Lions last Thursday night with an ankle injury that caused him to miss practice on Wednesday and Thursday of this week. The 23-year-old former second-rounder in 2024 caught all six of his targets for 63 yards with a bigger role last Thursday after WR1 DJ Moore (shoulder) left early with an AC joint sprain in his shoulder. Moore is set to be a game-time decision this weekend as well, so it is possible that quarterback Josh Allen could be without two of his pass-catchers against the Bolts. Coleman is hard to trust going into Week 3, but if he suits up and Moore is held out, he could have some sleeper potential in deeper fantasy leagues in a flex spot. Receivers Khalil Shakir and Joshua Palmer and tight end Dalton Kincaid will have higher target floors if both Moore and Coleman are inactive this weekend.

Keon Coleman Not Seen Again on Thursday
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (ankle) was not seen during the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday, according to The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia. If Coleman does not return to the field later on, it will be his second straight missed practice of the week, putting his availability firmly in question for the Week 3 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. And with receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) also up in the air, Buffalo's receiving corps could be thinned out this weekend for quarterback Josh Allen. Coleman, who had just one catch for one yard in the Week 1 win over the Houston Texans, quickly took advantage of Moore's in-game injury in last Thursday night's win over the Detroit Lions, catching all six of his targets for 63 yards. Not only is the 23-year-old now banged up himself, but Moore could return to action against the Chargers. The combination of the two has hurt Coleman's candidacy as a waiver-wire pickup.

Keon Coleman Dealing With Ankle Injury
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (ankle) was listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday due to an ankle injury, according to the team. After catching just one pass for one yard in the season-opening win over the Houston Texans, Coleman caught all six of his targets for 63 yards in last Thursday's win over the Detroit Lions in a game in which fellow wideout DJ Moore went down with a serious-looking shoulder injury. Moore was diagnosed with an AC joint sprain and was limited in practice on Wednesday, so he might not end up missing any time at all. Meanwhile, the 23-year-old Coleman is dealing with an ankle injury of his own that could have him up in the air to face the visiting Los Angeles Chargers this Sunday in Week 3. Coleman's waiver-wire case basically hinges on Moore's health, and with Moore potentially not missing any time, Coleman is no longer very attractive. If he cannot play against the Chargers, Khalil Shakir and Joshua Palmer could see more involvement behind Moore (assuming he plays).

Keon Coleman Is A Decent Deep League Waiver Wire Target
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman emerged as a pass-catching threat in Week 2's win over the Detroit Lions after DJ Moore was forced to leave the game with a shoulder injury. Moore was diagnosed with an AC joint sprain in his shoulder and is considered to be day-to-day. Look for Coleman to have another solid game in Week 3 as the Bills take on the Chargers. Coleman caught six passes on six targets for 63 yards against the Lions. Look for the talented receiver to build on his performance against the Lions and potentially find the end zone in Week 3. Coleman was a highly thought of Round 2 draft pick out of Florida State. He has been inconsistent with the Bills but looks to have an opportunity here with Josh Allen looking his way more often. Look for him to be a decent deep league play at wide receiver in Week 3

Keon Coleman Remains a Bench Option in Week 2
One target. One catch. One yard. That was Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman's Week 1 line against Houston, and there is not much reason to talk around it. The Bills receiver did run more routes than Joshua Palmer, but the targets went elsewhere. DJ Moore led the team with eight, Dalton Kincaid and Khalil Shakir each saw six, and Palmer turned one of his opportunities into the game-winning 34-yard touchdown. Detroit is a favorable matchup after getting lit up by New Orleans, but that only helps if Coleman is actually seeing the football. Right now, there is no evidence that he has a dependable fantasy role in this offense. His route participation at least gives him a chance to work his way into more opportunities, but fantasy managers should make him prove it first. RotoBaller ranks Coleman WR94 for Week 2 and has him listed as a sit. He can stay on fantasy benches until the target share gives managers a reason to reconsider.

Keon Coleman Faces Uphill Climb for Week 1 Value
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman enters his third season looking to rebound after catching 38 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns across 13 games in 2025. His path to a larger role became more complicated when Buffalo added DJ Moore, who joins Khalil Shakir and Dalton Kincaid among Josh Allen's top options. Coleman also draws a difficult opening matchup against a Houston defense that allowed only 20 passing touchdowns and intercepted 19 passes last season. RotoBaller has him at WR97 for Week 1, well outside the normal FLEX range. Coleman still has touchdown upside, but there is not enough projected volume to trust him in standard lineups Sunday. He is best left on the bench while Buffalo's target distribution takes shape.

Keon Coleman Listed as a Starter on Bills' Depth Chart
The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia reports that wide receiver Keon Coleman is ahead of Joshua Palmer on the Buffalo Bills' unofficial depth chart ahead of their Week 1 game this Sunday against the Houston Texans. Coleman, the team's former second-round pick in 2024 from Florida State, has been a disappointment in his first two years in the league, catching 67 of 116 targets for 960 yards and eight touchdowns in 26 games played (18 starts). The 23-year-old battled drops and was benched for showing up late to a team meeting, further hurting his dynasty/keeper stock. But heading into Year 3, the Bills' brass continues to say that Coleman is in their long-term plans, and they are hoping to see more maturity from him in 2026. The offseason acquisition of DJ Moore did not help Coleman's cause, but he is expected to start alongside Moore and Khalil Shakir in three-wide sets to kick off the regular season. Coleman has buy-low appeal in dynasty leagues and should be considered a deep-league sleeper. Right now, he is only rostered in 2% of Yahoo leagues and can be left on the waiver wire in 12-team formats.

Keon Coleman's Stock Falling After Injury During Camp
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman's stock is falling in fantasy football, partly due to an injury that slowed him down during training camp. Coleman suffered a right foot/toe injury during the Bills' preseason opener on Aug. 15, and although he did get back on the practice field this past week, his abbreviated training camp will likely hurt his stock at the start of the season. It's an unfortunate setback for the former Florida State receiver, who was already trending down after a frustrating 2025 season that included multiple non-injury-related absences. Coleman will try to dig his way out of the doghouse with new head coach Joe Brady, but first, he needs to get back up to game speed. He also needs to prove himself worthy of playing time in a wide receiver room that features DJ Moore, Khalil Shakir, Josh Palmer, and Skyler Bell. As it stands, Coleman is RotoBaller's WR117 in the latest redraft rankings. He can be avoided in 16-round fantasy drafts in leagues with 16 or fewer teams.

Keon Coleman Ditches Walking Boot
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (foot, toe) was seen on the sideline on Thursday before the team's preseason finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers without a walking boot, according to Alex Brasky of Sports Illustrated. Coleman will not play on Thursday night after spraining his right foot/toe in the preseason opener, but with his foot no longer in a walking boot, he could progress towards being ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener against the Houston Texans on Sunday, Sept. 13. Despite being a disappointment in his first two seasons in Buffalo after he was selected in the second round from Florida State, the Bills' brass hasn't given up on him and expect him to be a key part in the passing game in 2026 alongside newcomer DJ Moore and Khalil Shakir. Coleman had 38 catches on 59 targets for 404 yards and four touchdowns in 13 regular-season games in 2025 and was benched for being late to a team meeting. Maturity issues and drops have tanked his fantasy value in both redraft and keeper leagues, with Coleman currently being ranked as the WR116 at RotoBaller. If Coleman is out or limited in Week 1, Joshua Palmer and rookie Skyler Bell would be battling for WR3 duties in Houston.

Keon Coleman Diagnosed With Sprained Foot/Toe
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (foot/toe) has been diagnosed with a sprained foot/toe from Saturday's preseason opener against Carolina and is expected to miss some practice time. Coleman was in a walking boot on his right foot Tuesday, three days after catching a nine-yard touchdown from Josh Allen in Buffalo's 29-14 win. Head coach Joe Brady didn't sound overly concerned after the game, saying he believed Coleman would be fine while the team waited on the medical evaluation. Now there is a diagnosis, but still no return date. Coleman is heading into an important third season after catching 38 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games last year. He had put together a strong spring and summer before getting hurt. The walking boot makes the injury worth watching, but for now the only firm part is that Coleman will lose some practice time. How much remains unclear.

Keon Coleman Seen in a Walking Boot Following Preseason Injury
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (foot) was banged up in the team's preseason opener, appearing to favor his lower body after being tackled on a fourth-down converting catch. On Tuesday, he was seen wearing a walking boot on his right foot, according to Buffalo sports reporter Dan Fetes. Head coach Joe Brady had indicated after the game that the injury was not overly serious, but it now appears that Coleman will miss some time at the end of what has been a productive training camp. At RotoBaller's WR112, the third-year receiver was hardly factoring into 2026 draft plans, but any uncertainty surrounding the injury is now likely to see him removed from boards entirely.

Keon Coleman Banged Up in Preseason Opener
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman caught three passes in the team's preseason opener against the Panthers, including a nine-yard touchdown from Josh Allen on the second drive of the game, but he appeared to favor his lower body after being tackled on a fourth-down converting catch on the next drive. The Bills' first-team offense looked sharp in limited work, but both Coleman and DJ Moore got banged up and exited the game early. Head coach Joe Brady indicated after the game that neither situation is overly serious, and the Bills have a scheduled off day. Still, both statuses will need to be monitored in the lead-up to the regular season.

Keon Coleman Catches TD Pass, In Play for WR3 Role
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman is attempting to earn himself a starting role during the preseason. The third-year wideout got off to a nice start during the first preseason contest against the Carolina Panthers. Coleman snagged three of his four targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in the victory. His score came on a nine-yard pass from Josh Allen in the first quarter. The 23-year-old is trying to beat out Joshua Palmer and rookie Skyler Bell for the WR3 role in Buffalo this upcoming season. It's a small sample size, but Coleman appears to be building chemistry with Allen. He probably won't be a focal point in the offense, but Coleman could be worth a stash for dynasty managers willing to take a chance on him.

Keon Coleman's Solid Training Camp Could Put Him Back on Dynasty Radars
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman has disappointed through his first two seasons after the team selected him in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft. Some offhand remarks by owner Terry Pegula further painted Coleman as an early offseason faller and a potential drop candidate in dynasty leagues, and the fantasy community buried him even deeper following the Bills' trade for DJ Moore and the drafting of Skyler Bell. By most accounts, however, Coleman has had a productive training camp, regularly seeing time with the first-team offense as part of a four-man rotation that includes Moore, Khalil Shakir, and Joshua Palmer. A complementary role with lowered expectations could allow for further development and consistency, and while he still has not worked his way back into the 2026 redraft discussion, the perception around Coleman makes him a low-cost dynasty trade add-on who still has a chance to revive his career under a reshuffled coaching staff.

Keon Coleman Continues Strong Start to Bills Camp
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman continued his strong start to training camp during Tuesday's one-on-one period. Rookie Watch reported that Coleman won all four of his reps against cornerback Maxwell Hairston, again using his size and catch radius to make plays at the catch point. The third-year receiver is trying to bounce back after finishing 2025 with 38 receptions for 404 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games. Buffalo added DJ Moore to lead the outside passing game, while Khalil Shakir remains an established target for Josh Allen, so Coleman still has work to do before earning a dependable weekly role. The Bills have praised his improved preparation and understanding of the offense, and his recent camp performances are encouraging. Still, one-on-one drills favor receivers and do not settle the target hierarchy. Coleman is gaining momentum, but fantasy managers should wait to see the progress carry into team periods and preseason games.

Keon Coleman's Price Finally Matches the Risk
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman has fallen far enough that the price finally matches the risk. He caught 38 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns on 59 targets last season, starting only six games. A wrist injury cost him time, and being late to team meetings cost him trust and opportunities. Buffalo did not clear the runway this offseason, either. DJ Moore joined Khalil Shakir atop the receiver room, while rookie Skyler Bell added another option. Still, head coach Joe Brady praised Coleman's offseason and plans to use him both inside and outside. RotoBaller ranks him WR92 in dynasty and WR109 for redraft, so nobody is paying for a breakout. That makes him a reasonable buy-low throw-in for rebuilders and a late dart in deeper drafts. Contenders just should not enter the season needing him in the lineup.
