Bills-Chiefs Keon Coleman-Xavier Worthy trade has taken an unexpected twist<\/a> originally appeared on The Sporting News<\/a>. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Buffalo Bills<\/a> and Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> made a trade during the 2024 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the trade was for the Chiefs to trade up a few spots and get Xavier Worthy. The Bills traded down a few spots and got Keon Coleman.<\/p>\n

Two young wide receivers, both of whom would get a chance to play with top-notch quarterbacks.<\/p>\n

This was the full deal from the 2024 draft:<\/p>\n

Buffalo receives pick No. 32, No. 95, and No. 221<\/p>\n

Kansas City receives pick No. 28, No. 133, and No. 248<\/p>\n

The focus of the trade was on the Worthy and Coleman comparison.<\/p>\n

Two years later, it appears both teams might have gotten an underwhelming return.<\/p>\n

Worthy looked flashy as a rookie but didn’t show any growth in his second campaign.<\/p>\n

Coleman had a nightmare second season in which he was benched multiple times.<\/p>\n

Making matters worse, both teams could’ve had Ladd McConkey, who was the next WR off the draft board to the Los Angeles Chargers<\/a><\/p>\n

This post on X on Sunday sums it up:<\/p>\n

If someone was taking bets right now, it seems more likely that Worthy works out than Coleman, but both obviously have a lot of physical tools and need more polish as professional wide receivers.<\/p>\n

This trade seemed like it could be a massive one between two top AFC foes.<\/p>\n

Instead, it’s been rather disappointing both ways.<\/p>\n
