A few hours before the 2024 NFL Draft prospects open up their potential surprises, a heavy tide of favor has leaned towards WR Keon Coleman, who has so far played for the states of Michigan and Florida. The athletic star not only boasts a formidable physical presence on the field but also a familial connection with Ceedee Lamb.

The 20-year-old has played both football and basketball throughout his time in high school but acquired wide acclaim for his receptions and touchdowns in his freshman years, which put him on the radar of seeking teams. Now, with an added impetus coming from his connection to the Dallas Cowboys wide receiver, he stands on the verge of landing a substantial contract.

Keon Coleman may realize his dream of playing alongside Ceedee Lamb

Sharing impressive skills, Keon Coleman is also Ceedee Lamb’s cousin, taking their bond a bit beyond being wide receivers. In his previous statements, the young Michigan State player had opined that it would be a “dream come true” to play alongside his Cowboys brother, who already holds a stellar track record on the field after he was drafted way back in the first round of the 2020 NFL draft.

Born on May 17, 2003, in Opelousas, Louisiana to Ravin Savoy and a father whose identity is yet to be disclosed, Keon Coleman grew up with his older brother Kalin Coleman and three other siblings. In a press conference close to a month ago, the wide receiver himself broke the news about his connection with Lamb. While his acquisition by the Cowboys is not a done deal yet, his potential has attracted the eyes of several other teams.
