Who Should I Start? Christian Kirk or Khalil Shakir

Saturday, November 8, 5:29 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk is a high-risk play in all formats in Week 10 when his team hosts the Jaguars. Kirk just returned from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury, but he'll now be without his starting quarterback, C.J. Stroud (concussion), for at least this week. He had four catches for 26 yards on eight targets last week against Denver and has at least three catches in each game this season, but only for 135 scoreless yards. Backup QB Davis Mills will likely manage the game while the team relies on its excellent defense. Kirk typically gets enough receptions to deserve a little PPR attention, but with a new QB and likely a conservative game plan, he is very high-risk this week. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 53 WR this week, so he should be left on the bench or waiver wire in most formats.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has emerged as a target monster in the team's high-powered offense. Shakir has led the team in targets in each of their two matchups since their bye week, and faces a Miami Dolphins defense that he burned for a touchdown in Week 3. The fourth-year receiver is on pace to exceed last year's breakout season. Shakir is currently on pace for 80 receptions, 848 yards, and six touchdowns, all career highs. The team has done an excellent job of getting the ball into Shakir's hands on short-to-intermediate passes and letting him use his elusiveness to gain yards after the catch. Look for another high-usage day as quarterback Josh Allen and the Bills offense attack their divisional rival.
