Buffalo Bills receiver Keon Coleman will once again be left out on Sunday as the team faces the Cleveland Browns.
This time, the news was announced just before the official release of the list of inactive players on Sunday morning.
Coleman had already missed two games earlier in the season for disciplinary reasons.
This time, it is not a disciplinary sanction, but in any case, Coleman will not be present, although he is healthy.
The Bills instead took Mecole Hardman off injured reserve and he will be on the 53-man roster in uniform.
First choice in the second round of the 2024 draft, Coleman is having a disappointing season, after an unconvincing first year. In 12 games, Coleman caught 36 passes for 355 yards and four touchdowns.
He started the fall on a high with a 112-yard performance and a touchdown against the Baltimore Ravens, and since then he has been very quiet.
Buffalo traded its first-round pick to the Kansas City Chiefs, who selected Xavier Worthy. The Bills could also have set their sights on Ladd McConkey, selected one place after Coleman by the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Bills need a win, and a Texans or Colts loss to clinch their playoff spot. A win would also increase their chances of finishing the season atop the AFC East for the sixth straight season.
