Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Rashid Shaheed

Monday, December 15, 10:48 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (knee, hamstring) was listed on Monday's practice report as a non-participant, per John Boyle of Seahawks.com. Adams was forced to exit early from the Rams' Week 15 win over the Detroit Lions due to a hamstring injury. Los Angeles did not actually hold a practice on Monday, so Monday's report is an estimation of his status leading into the team's Week 16 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night. Across 14 games this season, Adams has hauled in 60 receptions for 789 yards and 14 touchdowns on 114 targets. If he's unable to play in Week 16, Rams wideouts Konata Mumpfield and Tutu Atwell could see increased roles. Los Angeles tight end Colby Parkinson, who caught two touchdowns against Detroit, could also continue to see more targets.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed finally broke out as a member of the Seahawks in Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons. Although his production was buoyed by a punt return for a touchdown, he could carry his six-target momentum into Week 15 against the Indianapolis Colts. Shaheed is still hovering around 50% of the offensive snaps, but Seattle seemed to make a point of getting him more involved down the field in Week 14. Shaheed is a talented outside receiver. If he can receive more opportunities down the field rather than as a gadget player, he could be great for this team. The Colts are No. 27 against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. They have simply had issues containing wide receivers despite their addition of cornerback Sauce Gardner (calf) at the trade deadline. Gardner is also out for this game If Seattle can continue to feed Shaheed, he could become a fantasy revelation over the final few weeks of the fantasy football playoffs. Keep an eye on Shaheed's production this week and consider throwing him on the back of your bench if you have the space.
