Amari Cooper didn't waste any time scoring his first touchdown as a member of the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo acquired Cooper in a trade with the Cleveland Browns on Tuesday. On Sunday Cooper caught a 12-yard pass from Josh Allen to give the Bills a 14-10 lead over the Tennessee Titans.

There wasn't anything spectacular about Cooper's first score in a Buffalo jersey, but something interesting did happen right before the ball was snapped.

Allen changed the play at the line and Cooper turned to rookie Keon Coleman. It's unclear what exactly Cooper said, but Coleman then points to the end zone, seemingly telling Cooper where to go on the audible. And that's exactly what he did.

A few people caught the moment between the two teammates.

Looks like Amari Cooper didn’t know the audible when Josh Allen checked the play. He looks to Keon Coleman who either tells him what to do or he makes it up 😂 TOUCHDOWN! pic.twitter.com/8jnXw1e4sQ

Here's FS1's Emmanuel Acho breaking it down.

Amari Cooper just scored his first touchdown with the Bills and he had no idea what the play was! Y’all gotta see this. 🤣 🤣

Coleman and Cooper both had 58 yards on four targets through three quarters. They could be a dangerous combination for Josh Allen as they both continue to get used to Buffalo.
