Dolphins selected Missouri WR Kevin Coleman Jr. with the No. 177 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.

25 April 2026

Coleman (5’10/179) spent his college career with four teams in four seasons, starting at Jackson State with Travis Hunter and Deion Sanders. After Hunter and Sanders left for Colorado, he hopped to Louisville and Mississippi State before finishing at Missouri. Coleman spent much of his college career as a slot receiver with some punt return ability mixed in. He is undersized but has acceleration and agility to make him an effective ball-carrier in space. Coleman is limited in his route tree with shallow receptions littered across his college production. Despite the lack of vertical receptions and touchdown production, Coleman got the ball a combined 153 times on offense between Mississippi State and Missouri in his final two seasons. He has a chance to stick on an NFL roster as a gadget slot receiver and special teams return man.
