Overview
- Coleman, targeted on the first 7-on-7 throw at training camp Wednesday, dropped that pass, made a tougher catch on the next play, and also took reps returning punts.
- General manager Brandon Beane said Coleman has 'really matured' and praised his offseason work while warning that nothing is guaranteed and performance still matters.
- Coleman has framed 2026 as a make-or-break year for his career and faces pressure to turn modest early production into a larger, consistent role.
- The Bills added veteran receiver DJ Moore in the offseason, creating tougher competition for targets and pushing Coleman to show versatility to keep his spot.
- Coleman was the No. 33 pick in the 2024 draft, recorded limited stats and was a healthy scratch last season, and owner Terry Pegula's public criticism in January intensified scrutiny of his progress.
