Bills WRs DJ Moore was limited in practice today with a shoulder injury suffered last week against the Lions on Thursday night football. Keon Coleman did not practice this week after suffering an ankle injury in Week 2.
Khalil Shakir is Buffalo’s only healthy starting wide receiver and is a high-floor start in Week 3. Joshua Palmer may see in increased role if one or both receivers are inactive this week, making him potentially FLEX worthy in deep formats.

The Buffalo Bills announced that WR DJ Moore (shoulder) has been ruled OUT after leaving the Week 2 contest against the Lions early. Moore landed hard on his shoulder late in the first half vs. the Lions while attempting to make a diving catch in the end zone.
There is early speculation that the injury could be a collarbone or AC joint injury, but it’s far too early to be sure what the injury is or how long he might miss. Hopefully it isn’t anything serious, as Moore had a strong debut with the Bills last week vs. the Texans, putting up a line of 5 catches, 100 yards and a touchdown. Fantasy football managers will need to keep an eye on updates from the Bills.
Keon Coleman scored the inaugural touchdown at the Buffalo Bills’ new venue over the weekend, but arrived at Tuesday’s practice in a walking boot. Coleman pairs an elite 19.3 Breakout Age (83rd percentile) and a 128.7 Burst Score (82nd percentile) with a modest 4.61 40-Yard Dash (22nd percentile).
Any extended preseason absence for Coleman directly threatens his route participation and target share in Buffalo’s offense, stalling what was already a unlikely Year 3 breakout. Coleman is currently PlayerProfiler’s Dynasty WR122. A DJ Moore renaissance season is now as likely as ever.
Selected 125th overall in the draft, rookie Skyler Bell sits as Buffalo’s WR5 despite offering raw athleticism highlighted by a 4.40 40-Yard Dash and a 94th-percentile 41.0-inch Vertical Jump. Beat writer Joe Buscaglia notes that inconsistent ball skills are holding Bell back, leaving him firmly behind DJ Moore, Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Joshua Palmer in the rotation.
Bell retains late-round dynasty appeal due to his separation ability, but he has near zero 2026 redraft potential. Keep him on dynasty taxi squads, and then reassess after the season is underway.
The Buffalo Bills remain committed to Keon Coleman, banking on his potential as a former 33rd overall pick despite previous trade rumors. While his career has been slowed by inconsistent play and disciplinary setbacks, GM Brandon Beane expects a breakout campaign from the receiver in 2026.
Still just 22 years old, Coleman faces a steep climb to that peak given the recent additions of D.J. Moore and Skyler Bell crowding the Buffalo depth chart. Coleman is the prototypical sell low candidate for fantasy football dynasty leagues.
Keon Coleman is currently fighting for scraps in a WR3 rotation with Josh Palmer while DJ Moore and Khalil Shakir soak up the actual high-value volume in Buffalo. The Bills are holding onto him for depth, but don’t get it twisted: the “Year 3 Breakout” is a fairy tale for a guy who hasn’t shown he can win consistently against NFL secondaries.
Coleman is effectively a roster-clogger masquerading as a prospect, and the opportunity metrics are screaming that his ceiling is permanently capped. Coleman is a classic “sell-low” candidate as his value is built on historical draft capital. Savvy dynasty managers are moving him for a mid-to-late rookie pick(s), or a more productive veteran, before the Bills inevitably draft his replacement and his market price hits zero.
