Their 2025 seasons

In 2025 Keon Coleman played 13 games and scored 102.4 PPR points, 7.9 a game, finishing WR60.

He caught 38 of 59 targets for 404 yards and 4 touchdowns, with 9 red zone targets.

That came to 4-5 targets a game, a 64 percent catch rate and 10.6 yards a catch.

He was on the field for 64 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Ja'Kobi Lane is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

Head to head

This season Keon Coleman holds the bigger snap share, 68 percent against 54 percent.

Their target share this season is the same, 15 percent each.

Byes and availability

Keon Coleman is off in Week 7 and Ja'Kobi Lane in Week 13, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

0.2 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
