Saints Eye Keon Coleman Trade for QB Shough

0:00On this March 20th, here's what's making headlines for the NFL. The New Orleans Saints are focusing on building a stronger supporting cast around second year quarterback Tyler Show this off season. After he showed real potential late last season, the team wants more weapons to help him grow. One idea gaining traction is trading for wide receiver Keon Coleman from the Buffalo Bills. Saints receivers have been thin beyond Chris Olave. Last year, Titan Jawan Johnson led the group in catches with spister Rashid Shaheed next before his trade to Seattle. That leaves a clear need for a reliable number two option. Coleman, a second-round pick in the 2024 draft, has struggled in Buffalo over two seasons. He's flashed talent at times, but overall underperformed in face benchings for showing up late to practices and meetings. Bills owner Terry Pegula publicly pointed fingers at the prior coaching staff for pushing the pick over other choices. Now with the team adding DJ more this off season, Coleman could be available at a low cost as his value has dropped.
