Milan’s return update, Coleman’s first, and Claypool’s impregnation

We’re getting closer to the quiet part of the NFL offseason — that time after OTAs and the start of training camp in late July. But for now, we have OTAs to watch and digest all the videos of players running on the field. OTAs are great for players to begin acclimating to new faces, but to get a real glimpse of how the new team is performing will have to wait until training camp and preseason, which are still a few years away. month. So, with that, let’s move on to today’s news and notes.

Some speculated that the free agent signing of Deion Jones had more to do with Matt Milano not being ready to start the season, and some even conjectured that he might not be the same when he did. . Coach McDermott announced yesterday at a press conference that Matt Milano’s rehabilitation is progressing well. He should be back on the field by training camp. This will be a massive addition to the Bills defensive lineup, and fans are excited to see a full season from Milano and Terrel Bernard in tandem.

Fans finally got to see Keon Coleman on the football field in a practice setting, catching the first passes of his career from Josh Allen. Word on the street was that he had a solid practice, including riding a 50/50 ball and pulling it down. Scouting reports on Coleman said he was an excellent jump ball receiver. I was thinking about that the other day too. How many of Allen’s interceptions last season were deep jumpers on a third-and-hail Mary? I think Coleman will at least prevent some of these picks.

Twitter was abuzz today with all the Claypool quotes, as well as a few plays during OTAs. I know a lot of fans are already hyped on Claypool, but this former second-round pick seems like he’s out to prove something. He spoke at length with reporters and had a lot to say about his career: “I’ve learned from all my mistakes. If you learn from them, you grow from them,” Claypool said. He added: “It’s hard to believe in the player you are or can be and not live up to those expectations.” Don’t be shocked when the Bills announce their 53-man roster with him listed as a receiver.
