Florida State wide receiver Keon Coleman declares for 2024 NFL Draft

Florida State receiver Keon Coleman has made his decision on the 2024 NFL Draft, and the talented pass-catcher will be forgoing his remaining eligibility and entering the 2024 NFL Draft.

Keon Coleman, a standout receiver for the Seminoles in 2023 after transferring in from Michigan State, announced his decision Wednesday on Instagram.

He did battle some injuries during the season but still managed to have an incredible productive season. He was often the perfect release valve for quarterback Jordan Travis, and his ability to win one-on-one balls downfield was unrivaled.

Coleman recorded 50 catches for 658 yards and 11 touchdowns. He also logged one carry for two yards.

Prior to enrolling at Florida State following his transfer, Keon Coleman was a star at Michigan State.

He was named a third-team All-Big Ten selection in 2022 after catching 58 passes for 798 yards and seven touchdowns. Coleman appeared in 22 games at Michigan State with 12 starts.
