Details on Keon Coleman’s contract with the Buffalo Bills

Buffalo will not be able to exercise a fifth-year option with the receiver.

When Keon Coleman signed his rookie contract in the middle of minicamp on Wednesday, fans were unsure of the details of the contract. Now that the numbers have been released, let’s take a look at the deal for the first pick in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Considering the receiver was selected 33rd overall, his contract isn’t really comparable to the first few rounds before him, especially since the Bills can’t exercise the fifth-year option. But that doesn’t mean that after the fourth year it’s the end of the road. If Buffalo is happy with Coleman’s production, they could make another deal.

Now it’s time to talk about money.

Coleman signed a four-year contract for $10,074,258 with an annual salary of approximately $2,518,565, per Spotrac.

The former Seminole received a hefty signing bonus of $4,146,732 (that’s a lot of winter jackets if he starts shopping now), and $9,640,495 of his contract is guaranteed. His cap hit for 2024 is $1,831,683.

Fans who fell in love with Wegman’s cookie monster can support him and his yellow jacket through 2028, when Coleman becomes a free agent.

Coleman seemed to do well in minicamp and OTAs, and finished minicamp with a whirlwind catch of Josh Allen, showing why he was drafted.

The Buffalo Bills will begin training camp next month (July 24) at St. John Fisher University, where fans will be able to see Coleman in action before the season officially begins.
