Keon Coleman News
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.

Matthew Golden News
Sunday, August 23, 10:25 AM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden didn't have much to show for his rookie year until the very end. He caught 29 passes for 361 yards during the regular season, then went for 84 yards and his first NFL touchdown against Chicago in the playoffs. Green Bay has cleared out some of the traffic since then. Romeo Doubs left in free agency and Dontayvion Wicks was traded, leaving Golden in the top three with Christian Watson and Jayden Reed. The summer has helped his case, too. Golden caught a 57-yard touchdown from Jordan Love on Family Night, missed a couple of practices with a toe issue, then came right back without much trouble. On Friday against Denver, he was out there with the starters and caught a 19-yard pass from Love on fourth-and-inches during the opening touchdown drive. There are still plenty of mouths to feed once Tucker Kraft is included, so Golden isn't guaranteed a huge target jump. The opportunity is a lot cleaner than it was last year, though. RotoBaller has him 113th overall in PPR, and he's looking more interesting as a bench receiver with upside.
