Bills’ Keon Coleman Spotted in Walking Boot and Diagnosed With Sprained Foot/Toe

Missed practice time creates short-term availability questions for a receiver already facing performance scrutiny.

Overview

  • Coleman was seen wearing a walking boot and did not take part in the Bills’ open practice after the preseason opener, and NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe reported a sprained foot/toe that will keep him out of some practices Tuesday.
  • Head coach Joe Brady told reporters he was not overly concerned about the injury, saying medical checks will determine timing rather than signaling a likely long-term absence.
  • Coleman caught a touchdown from Josh Allen in Buffalo’s preseason opener at Highmark Stadium, but the lower-body tweak occurred during that same game and preceded his boot at practice.
  • The injury matters because Coleman enters 2026 under pressure after multiple benchings and healthy scratches in 2024–25, and the team rejected trade offers for him earlier in the offseason according to reporting.
  • If Coleman misses more time the Bills could look for short-term receiving help, and the immediate things to watch are his practice participation, any roster moves, and whether he’s available for the next preseason game.
