You'd be hard-pressed to find a player that Buffalo Bills fans are more excited to see in action this fall than rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman.

The first selection of the second round has lived in social media headlines since being selected, and fans are excited to see the humorous wideout actually catch passes from Josh Allen.

The Bills held their rookie minicamp this weekend, to which Coleman said he had nerves for, but was also very excited.

"Once I grabbed the helmet and put it on, it kind of shook me back to real life," Coleman said. "Like this is reality now."

Keon Coleman said getting back on the football field today was the best feeling in the world. He admitted he had a bunch of jitters but it’s an exciting time.

Coleman will likely be the top receiver on the Bills' depth chart once Week 1 rolls around, and he'll be leading a group that is deeper than some may have originally thought. The likes of Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel, and perhaps even Chase Claypool will all have roles in the offense in 2024- a wide variety of names for Allen to distribute the ball to.
