The Buffalo Bills continued their hot start to the year on Monday Night Football.  This time it came in the form of a dominant win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.  In front of their home crowd, Buffalo scorched the Jaguars 47-10.

Nearly everything seems to be going Buffalo’s way three weeks into the season. However, conduct within the team led to a benching of one of their starters.

According to Bills beat reporter Matt Parrino:

Sean McDermott benched Keon Coleman for the first quarter against the Jaguars because of an issue related to being on time.

Coleman’s benching wasn’t an issue of being late today.

McDermott: “I’m very impressed with how Keon handled it and then to go out there … & catch the touchdown pass. I know how important his teammates are to him & this will be a learning opportunity for him.”

Coleman has the potential to be special in this league.  Here is a look at his college stats:
