The Buffalo Bills offense underwent a bit of a makeover during the offseason as they traded Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans and let Gabe Davis walk in free agency to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Diggs and Davis were the leaders of the passing game the past few years, but now Josh Allen will need to lean on his new group of pass-catching options during the 2024 NFL season.
Tight ends Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox are in line for bigger roles, but all eyes will be on rookie receiver Keon Coleman whom the Bills took No. 33 overall in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Coleman was one of the more divisive prospects in the draft as he’s got the athletic traits to be a mismatch nightmare for opposing defensive backs, but lacks the same level of route running polish that some of his draft mates have.
However, that didn’t stop Buffalo from taking a gamble on the ultra-talented receiver out of Florida State who walks into as good of a situation as possible
During training camp, Coleman has been turning heads with his playmaking ability and made another snag that made the rounds on social media via the Bills’ official Twitter account.

In the video, Allen laces a ball into a tight window on the move to Coleman who’s able to leap up and catch it over his defender.
These are the kinds of plays that Buffalo is hoping to see out of Coleman in the 2024 NFL season as he can legitimately win one-on-one against most defenders in the areas like the red zone.
