The Buffalo Bills have responded to Keon Coleman’s arrival with a four-word message, igniting excitement and setting expectations high for the rookie wide receiver. But can Coleman fill the void left by Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis, and become the Bills’ next WR1?

**”He’s A Confident Kid”**

**Rookie Season**

Though pegged as a boom-or-bust DFS option, Coleman may be the most dangerous downfield threat of the Bills’ receiving corps[2]. He is tied for the team lead for receptions longer than 25 yards (six) and trails Mack Hollins in receiving touchdowns (four)[2]. However, Coleman has had limited opportunities in the Divisional Round[2]. The rookie logged one, one, three, and two receptions in the four weeks since his return from a wrist injury[3].
