Who Should I Start? Kaden Davis or Justin Shorter

Saturday, August 9, 6:28 AM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Kaden Davis caught all three of his targets for 23 yards and two touchdowns in a 30-10 win over the Carolina Panthers in preseason action on Friday. Davis made a splash in the win, catching both of Shedeur Sanders' touchdown passes in the contest. The second-year wideout played sparingly for the Browns on special teams in 2024 but is looking to carve out a larger role as a pass-catcher heading into his sophomore season. He will look to stay hot in Cleveland's second preseason game, which will be next Saturday against the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Las Vegas Raiders have made a series of back-of-roster moves, elevating third-year wide receiver Justin Shorter to the active roster and signing veteran receiver Phillip Dorsett to fill his spot on the practice squad. The Raiders were able to open a roster spot after moving Amari Cooper to the Reserve/Retired list following his unheralded retirement announcement on Thursday. At 6'4" and 227 pounds, Shorter was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 2023 but spent his rookie season on injured reserve. He spent 2024 between the Raiders' active roster and practice squad as he transitioned to playing tight end. He made ten regular-season appearances without registering a stat. While the Raiders search for any depth in the wide receiver room, Shorter's signing should have no significance to fantasy managers.
