Keon Coleman Ditches Walking Boot

Thursday, August 27, 1:59 PM

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.

Chimere Dike Facing Serious Target Competition in 2026

Thursday, August 27, 6:00 PM

Tennessee Titans second-year receiver out of Florida, Chimere Dike, is looking to build off a rookie campaign that saw him get 74 targets, 48 receptions, 423 receiving yards, and four touchdowns. Dike finished the season as the WR50, and while he has great speed (4.34 40-yard time), the Titans drafted rookie Carnell Tate in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, have Calvin Ridley, and signed Wan'Dale Robinson from the New York Giants. Target competition for Dike will be an uphill battle this season, as even without Tate and Robinson in the picture, he only saw a 14 percent target share. Robinson is known as a target hog, as he's seen 280 targets over the past two seasons, and Tate profiles as a legitimate future WR1. The one silver lining for Dike is he was ninth in the NFL in red zone target share last season, but with the increased target competition, Dike is going undrafted in most formats. RotoBaller ranks Dike as the WR96 and 249th player off the board. Fantasy Managers should look elsewhere in redraft formats.
