Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman will not play Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts, head coach Sean McDermott announced.
Coleman did not participate in practice this week after sustaining a wrist injury during the latter stages of the Bills' 30-27 victory over the Miami Dolphins last Sunday.
"It's probably going to be more than this week," McDermott said Friday on WGR 550. "It's probably going to be multiple weeks. I just don't know how far into the future it'll go."
Replays showed Dolphins safety Jordan Poyer's helmet smashing into Coleman's right wrist or forearm on a deep pass attempt from Josh Allen. Poyer was flagged for unnecessary roughness on the play and Coleman left the game. Buffalo's drive ended with a game-winning 61-yard field goal by Tyler Bass.
Fellow wideout Amari Cooper also is nursing a wrist injury for the Bills (7-2).
Coleman had just one catch for 21 yards against the Dolphins. He ranks second on the team with 417 yards on 22 catches and shares the team lead with three touchdown receptions.
Buffalo drafted Coleman in the second round (33rd overall) out of Florida State in 2024.
