Keon Coleman will have tests today to determine the severity of his wrist injury.

Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman will undergo tests today to assess the extent of his wrist injury, according to various reports. Both Bills fans and fantasy football managers should keep an eye on his status as the week progresses.

Keon Coleman to Undergo MRI
Coleman will have MRIs today to evaluate his wrist injury, which occurred in the fourth quarter when former Bills safety Jordan Poyer collided with him while defending a deep pass from Josh Allen. Poyer received a penalty for unnecessary roughness. Initially, there were concerns that Coleman might have suffered a head injury after Poyer’s helmet struck his. Despite the injury, the Bills managed to secure a victory with a game-winning 61-yard field goal from Tyler Bass.

Next Man Up
In the game against the Miami Dolphins, Coleman caught one of two passes for 21 yards. He has shown promise over the past two weeks, building a rapport with Allen, totaling 195 yards and one touchdown. If Coleman is sidelined, the Bills will likely rely on Curtis Samuel, who has struggled since joining the team. Although Samuel played against the Dolphins, he did not catch his only target. The Bills’ receiving corps is looking thin after losing Amari Cooper to a wrist injury last week and now Coleman.

With the NFL trade deadline approaching, the Bills may look to acquire another wide receiver. Potential targets include K.J. Osborn and standout Cooper Kupp from the Los Angeles Rams. The team has also elevated practice squad players Tyrell Shavers and Jalen Virgil, both of whom can be called up one more time before needing to be signed to the 53-man roster.

Final Thoughts
The Bills are set to face the Colts in Indianapolis this Sunday at 1:00 PM. They hope to have back both WR Amari Cooper and standout cornerback Christian Benford, who missed Week 9. The severity of Coleman’s injury remains to be seen; if he goes on injured reserve, many anticipate the Bills will seek another wide receiver before the trade deadline. Could Carolina Panthers WR Adam Thielen be a potential target? We will provide updates on Coleman’s condition as more information becomes available.
