TOP Star Made Tt Clear He Doesn’t Feel Any Pressure While Replacing A Four-Time Pro Bowler.

WR Keon Coleman of the Buffalo Bills seems unfazed by stepping into Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis’ shoes.
Keon Coleman, a former standout wide receiver for Florida State, will be the center of attention when the Buffalo Bills and Chicago Bears play on August 10 at 1:00 p.m. Arriving with a ton of excitement and an even greater personality that has enthralled the Bills Mafia fandom and beyond with his on-camera antics and wholesome attitude, Coleman was selected in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
The native of Opelousas, Louisiana, led the Seminoles in touchdowns and receiving yards the previous season. But he has some large shoes to fill after Gabe Davis left Buffalo to sign a free agent contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars and former Bills star wide receiver Stefon Diggs was dealt to the Houston Texans. In 2023, Davis gained 746 yards via the air and seven touchdowns, while Diggs finished the previous season with 1,183 yards and eight touchdowns.

Replacing the two former All-Star wide outs for the Bills doesn’t appear to worry Coleman. Coleman made it plain that he doesn’t feel under pressure to succeed a four-time Pro Bowl player in a recent interview with former Seminole and sports broadcaster Bryant McFadden.

Coleman replied, “Not at all,” to McFadden. “All I do is enter and present myself as I am, in my proper place. I only need to be present and the play will come to itself. Since I’m simply Keon and not Stef or Gabe. Together with Josh, we have a ton of other folks that really enhance my game, and we figure things out by enhancing each other’s games.

Keon’s support network and family history have shaped his self-belief. He keeps saying that he will remain modest no matter what goals he pursues. Coleman’s 40-yard sprint combine time of 4.61 didn’t exactly blow anybody away, but in his gauntlet exercise, he hit a peak speed of 20.36 MPH, which was the fastest speed recorded by a receiver in the previous two seasons.

His highlight reel will demonstrate why Ron Dugans, the receivers coach, and Mike Norvell, the head coach of FSU, wanted him in their offense. His NFL potential was evident as he emerged as a star early in the previous year’s fall camp.

He’ll have a strong group of receivers surrounding him, and being able to catch passes from Josh Allen—a two-time Pro Bowler—will increase his chances of having an immediate impact in Buffalo. Coleman will join James Cook, the brother of FSU great Dalvin Cook, on the team, and the Bills offensive should continue to be one of the strongest in the AFC East.
