‘The clutch catches and blue-collar work must continue for Coleman. After a tumultuous offseason in which he repeatedly was attached to trade speculation, Coleman is competing with Joshua Palmer for snaps as the Bills’ third receiver. Unlike training camp a year ago, he’s not heavily targeted in most practices. It’s likely that Brady will have Coleman on the field plenty in the final two preseason games to rest Moore and Shakir. Less than one month until their 17-game schedule begins, Coleman is among the players who’s stock rose Saturday.’

7 reasons Bills fans should be encouraged and 1 major concern after Buffalo’s preseason win over Carolina
‘It’s going to be a numbers game at outside linebacker for the Bills. Mike Danna did his part against the Panthers to show why he should stick on the 53-man roster. In one series, Danna recorded two sacks for the defense. Buffalo has a strong top four at outside linebacker (Bradley Chubb, Greg Rousseau, Michael Hoecht, T.J. Parker), but Danna’s experience in big games and NFL production makes him an intriguing option for OLB No. 5.’

Bills hammer Panthers in preseason opener | What’s next?
‘Cornerback opposite of Benford: Christian Benford is Buffalo’s best cornerback, now it’s just about finding who’ll play on the other boundary. The answer right now, today, is Maxwell Hairston, the 2025 first-round pick out of Kentucky. The problem is, Hairston only played in 11 games last year, and is once again hurt with a lower-body injury to start the preseason. On top of that, Davison Igbinosun was drafted in the second round this year. Igbinosun was good in Saturday’s contest, playing most of the game as Buffalo’s defense acted as a stalwart to Carolina’s offense. This will be something to monitor, especially if Hairston continues to miss time.’
