The Saints have set up a visit with Florida State WR Keon Coleman, per source. The Louisiana native is 6-foot-3 and had 11 touchdowns last season. Also returns punts.
Fits the profile of the type of receiver who could fit in with Olave and Shaheed.

The New Orleans Saints have scheduled a visit with Keon Coleman, a 2024 NFL draft prospect out of Florida State. NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill first reported the news of this meeting.
Coleman is the type of receiver that would compliment Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed. He’s a big-bodied target that would be primed for red zone targets, an area on the outside that the team was missing last season.
The 6-foot-3 Louisiana native had 50 catches for 658 yards and 11 touchdowns this season. He had a disappointing 40-yard-dash at the combine (4.61) that caused some people to drop off of the hype train. For the Saints, however, the time shouldn’t be too scary. It’s not what they need him to do. He excelled in the other athletic areas and even had a nice 10-yard split, he’ll be just fine in the NFL.
