Okay, let me tell you about this whole Keon Coleman contract thing with the Buffalo Bills. It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster, I gotta say.
So, first off, I started digging into this because, well, I’m a huge Bills fan, and Coleman is looking like a promising addition to the team. I heard rumors flying around about this rookie wide receiver, Keon Coleman, signing some massive deal. I mean, I saw numbers like $107 million for two years! That sounded insane, so I had to find out what was really going on.
I started by checking out some of the usual sports news sites. Nothing concrete there, just more rumors. Then I hit up some forums and fan pages. People were talking about him missing a few games because of a wrist issue and seeing he only had a 76 rating on Madden NFL 25. I also found out his older brother is named Kaylen, which is a cool tidbit but not really what I was after.
After that, I dug a little deeper. Finally, I found something solid. The Bills officially announced they signed Coleman, their second-round draft pick, to a four-year rookie contract. That made sense. But the details were still fuzzy, so I kept searching.
Eventually, I stumbled upon the actual contract numbers, and let me tell you, it’s a lot more reasonable than that $107 million I initially saw. Turns out, Coleman signed a 4-year deal worth $10,074,258. It includes a $4,146,732 signing bonus and $9,640,495 guaranteed. That’s still a hefty chunk of change for a rookie, but it’s not the crazy number that was floating around earlier.
Here’s a little breakdown of what I found:
- Contract Length: 4 years
- Total Value: $10,074,258
- Signing Bonus: $4,146,732
- Guaranteed Money: $9,640,495
My Thoughts
Honestly, it took some serious digging to get to the bottom of this. There was so much misinformation out there, it was hard to know what to believe. But I’m glad I finally found the real numbers. It makes a lot more sense now. A four-year rookie contract worth just over $10 million is pretty standard for a second-round pick.
I’m excited to see what Coleman can do on the field once he’s healthy. Hopefully, he can live up to the hype and help the Bills make a run for the Super Bowl. We’ll see what happens!
