Everybody loves Keon Coleman: Former FSU wide receiver shows personality with the Bills

How can you not like Keon Coleman?

The former Florida State wide receiver hasn’t played a down yet but has become the darling of the NFL after being drafted No. 33 to the Buffalo Bills in the 2024 NFL Draft.

In the last two weeks, Coleman has not been afraid to express himself and show his personality.

His fun, good-natured approach has made him an internet sensation.

'I ain’t no golfer - I’m Tiger WishHeCould.'

A recent video that surfaced on social media showed Coleman’s NFL Combine meeting with the Bills. When asked what he does after football, he gave a hilarious, yet genuine answer.

“I’m chilling at the house, golfing. I bowl a little bit,” he responded.

Then, in a follow-up question about his golf game. His response was:

“I ain’t no golfer - I’m Tiger WishHeCould.”

With golfing becoming Coleman's biggest trend, on Tuesday, Top Golf in Dallas (TX) posted a video of Coleman with content creator Roger Steele playing a game called 'Block Party.'

With only five shots, the golfer can hit anywhere on the virtual golf field and will gather points. The loser points had to do 50 pushups. It was unclear who won this virtual golf game, but what was clear was who had fun.

Keon Coleman's first visit to the Buffalo Bills facility

Once Coleman made it to Buffalo, he was a kid in a candy store. The Bills media production released Coleman's 24-hour visit.

Pick your poison in what stood out during Coleman's trip to Buffalo.

It could be his short story video about his first NFL visit to Buffalo. On his way to the Bills facility, he recalled looking for a swimming pool to work out in and ended up finding an ice rink instead.

"The last thing I was expecting was an ice rink," Coleman reacted. "An ice rink. I'm like, what am I supposed to do with that? That is out of the ordinary."

Or it could be Coleman trying out the Bills' cold chamber in the athletic training room for the first time. Amazed by the smoke around the chamber, he requested to turn the lights off and impersonate WWE superstar The Undertaker.

Maybe it was when he ran down to the field at Highmark Stadium, his name on the jumbotron, to complete his tour of the facility.

Keon Coleman's yellow jacket from Macy's

You can't help but smile when Coleman is in the room. Even though he can brighten anyone's day, his yellow winter jacket was brighter.

During his 24-hour visit, Coleman was rocking a black t-shirt, a chain with the No. 4 on, and a yellow jacket complete his outfit.

It was a jacket he bought on sale at Macy's when he was still at Michigan State. It only cost him $79.89, according to the Louisiana native.

When asked about it, he emphasized where he got it from and how much it cost, especially during his introduction to the local press while giving a little fashion advice to the media.

"It was a nice little deal," he explained. "You can get a trench coat for like $100. (It's a) nice little (jacket)...I'll take you up there personally."

Coleman hopes to buy a couple more jackets in blue and red.

Keon Coleman spoke out about missing the College Football Playoff

While his time at FSU is behind him, Coleman had no problem telling some FSU stories to former NFL quarterback and now an analyst for ESPN Robert Griffin III's podcast, 'RGIII and The Ones.'

During the podcast, he was asked about missing the College Football Playoff despite going undefeated and being the ACC champs.

“We did everything y’all told us to do," he said in RGIII's podcast. "Beat everybody y’all put on the schedule. Did everything right, and we was still like, what more could we have done?”

As frustrated Coleman was when FSU was snubbed, he understood the political side when he found out that losing quarterback Jordan Travis to injury contributed to missing the playoffs.

The Seminoles went on to play the Georgia Bulldogs in the Capital One Orange Bowl. Coleman didn't play that game, and the Seminoles lost 63-6.

'He's a confident kid': What Keon Coleman brings to Bills offense

Brandon Beane liked what he saw in Coleman, and he first watched him last year at FSU's season opener against LSU.

When Coleman ran a slow 40-time at the NFL Combine, Beane murmured that he could fall to the Bills under their laps.

After trading out the first round, it was the right time for him to select Coleman as their first pick in the second round.

"He's a confident kid," Beane said about Coleman. "He's a dog. However you want to say it, he'll bring some attitude and energy to our room. "

Beane likes his size and how he carries his body as a 6-foot-4, 215-pound wide receiver. He also loves the physicality and athletic traits he brings to the Bills' offense, something that is needed for Buffalo after Stefon Diggs's departure.

Coleman is likely to be focused as an outside receiver. Beane said he wouldn't avoid using him in the slot or returning punts on special teams.

While Coleman might not make a cornerback miss, his catch radius, ability to beat DBs in 50-50 balls, and yards after catch can make up for his lack of speed. Quarterback Josh Allen can work with that.
