The Buffalo Bills added another offensive weapon for quarterback Josh Allen to utilize when they selected Florida State receiver Keon Coleman on Friday with the No. 33 pick of the 2024 NFL draft.

Buffalo also added quite the character to its locker room.

Coleman kept the jokes rolling during his introductory press conference with the Buffalo media on Saturday. The 20-year-old began by giving reporters a few savvy shopping tips.

"Guess where I got this [jacket] from?" Coleman asked a reporter before answering his first question. "You're going to be wrong, though. ... Macy's. What you mean? They be on sale on the rack, all the colors. ... Nice little deal."

As soon as he was done fielding questions, Coleman immediately asked if he could snag a few snacks from a table sitting to his left. He was given the green light and split a cookie with a reporter.

"Hey, I can grab some of them?" he asked a member of the Bills' PR team.

Quite the first impression.

Coleman should develop into one of Allen's favorite targets in the passing game, as the Bills look to establish a new era in their receivers room after Stefon Diggs was traded to the Houston Texans earlier this month.

Coleman will work alongside fellow Bills receivers Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel and Mack Hollins in his rookie campaign.
