Giants Work Out Corey Coleman

Former Browns first-round pick Corey Coleman worked out for the Giants on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN.com tweets. Both New York teams have looked at the wide receiver this week, so his next stop could very well be in New Jersey.

The Giants were forced to place No. 3 wide receiver Cody Latimer on IR this week, so they could use some reinforcements for the passing game. Bennie Fowler was brought aboard to take his place, but someone like Coleman may offer greater upside.

Granted, Coleman hasn’t done a whole lot since since being selected with the No. 15 overall pick in the 2016 draft. The Browns traded him for a 2020 seventh-round pick in August, but cut him in the first weekend of September. After that, the Patriots added him, dropped him, and signed him to the practice squad before dropping him from the reserve unit on Sept. 29.

Coleman’s rookie season was his best to date, a campaign in which he caught 33 passes for 413 yards and three touchdowns. Last year, he had just 23 catches for 305 yards and 2 TDs.
