Bills Make Keon Coleman a Healthy Scratch After Missed Meeting in Week 11

Coach Sean McDermott said the move followed a second team-rule violation under his strike-based discipline policy.

Overview

  • Coleman was inactive for the Buccaneers game as a healthy scratch, which ESPN reported was his first career full-game healthy scratch.
  • McDermott and Coleman both confirmed he was late to a Friday meeting, with the coach calling it a second offense that triggered the benching.
  • Coleman has 32 receptions for 330 yards and three touchdowns this season, per postgame figures cited in Yahoo Sports’ report.
  • Game-day video showed Josh Allen walking past Coleman during a sideline celebration after a touchdown, adding to public scrutiny of their dynamic.
  • Buffalo has added competition at receiver in recent days, elevating Gabe Davis from the practice squad and signing Mecole Hardman.
