Rashid Shaheed Will Play Against Rams Sunday

Sunday, November 2, 3:14 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (hip) is officially active for Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Los Angeles Rams. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity this past week. Shaheed is a big-play threat who has looked solid in his role as the No. 2 receiver behind Chris Olave, despite New Orleans' offensive struggles this year. The 27-year-old ranks as the overall WR29 in PPR leagues with 39 catches, 431 receiving yards, and a pair of touchdowns. He had his best game of the season last week as he caught nine of 12 targets for 75 yards (plus a lost fumble). The Saints switched quarterbacks at halftime in Week 8, handing the offense from Spencer Rattler to Tyler Shough. Shough remains installed as the team's starter for Week 9, but it remains to be seen if or how the rookie can elevate Shaheed's game. For now, Shaheed continues to rank as a WR3/flex in most fantasy leagues.
