Video: Bills' Keon Coleman Talks Viral Press Conference, Path to NFL, More with RG3

Many NFL fans were introduced to new Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman through his now-viral introductory press conference, in which he spoke about shopping at Macy's, his love of Waffle House and scoring imaginary touchdowns at Highmark Stadium.

On Tuesday, Robert Griffin III's interview with Coleman on RG3 and The Ones dropped, and the two discussed a number of different topics.

Coleman further explained that he shops at Macy's one or two seasons ahead for the discounts (e.g. getting winter coats in the summertime). When Griffin asked if he had any other shopping gems to share, Coleman declined with a smile, saying that they had to stay gems for a reason and they were for him to keep.

During his introductory presser, Coleman made mention that the statistics say he wasn't supposed to make it to the NFL. Griffin asked Coleman about that, and he elaborated. The ex-Florida State wideout explained that the last player to make the NFL from his hometown was former New Orleans wide receiver Devery Henderson, who entered the league in 2004.

"There's a lot of guys who's probably better athletes than me—I doubt it—but you know, they got a lot of guys in that area of expertise, they're very athletic, fast, can jump high and ball. But they either never get the chance, or when they do get the chance, they don't have the right guidance...they don't have their heads screwed on right. Different paths lead down different roads. So they end up taking the wrong one, and they never make it out. And it happens so much, it's like the statistics don't favor you doing what I'm doing, it don't happen."

Coleman also praised his mother and brothers and the rest of his support staff for helping him get to where he is today.

On another note, Coleman clarified that he's not eating Waffle House and McDonald's every day, even though his passion for both establishments shone during his introductory press conference. Coleman said he eats McDonald's once a week. He did say that he eats ice cream every day (with a vanilla cone mixed in here and there) but noted that he and the rest of his family can cook.

Ultimately, Coleman's an easy player to like and root for, and he'll be thrust into the spotlight right away in Western New York as the Bills remake their entire wide receiver room. Those imaginary touchdowns Coleman scored could very well turn into real ones early and often in 2024.
