Who Should I Start? Joshua Palmer or Keon Coleman

Monday, August 4, 8:58 PM

After sitting out Sunday, Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (groin) returned to practice on Monday. Palmer spent the first four seasons of his career with the Los Angeles Chargers before joining the Bills on a three-year contract in free agency this past winter. While Palmer caught fewer than 40 passes for under 600 yards in each of the previous two seasons, he could be in for a bigger role on a Buffalo team that lacks a star receiver. The team's most productive wideout from last season, Khalil Shakir (ankle), suffered a high-ankle sprain last Friday and is considered "week-to-week." It'll be all the more important for Palmer and others to step up if Shakir has to miss any regular-season action.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (groin) was listed as limited in the team's first official practice on Wedneday heading into a Week 1 showdown on Sunday night against the Baltimore Ravens. Coleman should be good to go for Sunday evening's tilt, but he'll have two more days to get in a full practice. Fellow wideout Khalil Shakir (ankle) practiced in full, so quarterback Josh Allen should have his top two receivers available. Coleman, who was a second-rounder last year out of Florida State, played in only 13 games in the regular season in his rookie year due to injuries and finished with a 29-556-4 line. He was inconsistent, but he has showns signs this summer of taking on an elevated role in Year 2. Still, with Joshua Palmer now in the fold in an offense that spreads the ball around, Coleman should be considered a WR4/flex for fantasy against Baltimore in Week 1.
