The Buffalo Bills (5-2) will host the Kansas City Chiefs (4-3) in Week 9. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Keon Coleman.
Is Coleman Playing in Week 9?
Coleman is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Bills’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Coleman in Week 9?
If the Bills were struggling, you could sell me on an expansion of Keon Coleman’s ripple, but with them getting the train back on the tracks with a 31-point win in Carolina, he’s basically a fancy Rashod Bateman these days.
I’m kidding.
Sort of.
You like the profile and the offensive environment, but there are no tangible numbers pointing toward short-term success.
Sounds like Bateman, no?
Coleman has failed to earn more than four targets in four of his past six games, and with the Khalil Shakir/James Cook tandem showing plenty capable of producing next to Josh Allen, what motivation does this team have to feature their big play threat in a way that matters?
Coleman can remain rostered if you want to have an athletic player to plug in if you’re absolutely backed into a corner, but I can’t imagine a world moving forward in which you’re excited about playing the second-year WR.
