Khalil Shakir Profiles as WR3 Option in Week 15 Against Patriots

Saturday, December 13, 9:18 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has been quiet over the recent stretch of games. Shakir broke out for a season-high eight receptions for 110 yards on 10 targets against the Texans in Week 12, but in three games since, he's totaled just four receptions for 18 yards on 10 targets. The 25-year-old wideout is the only Bills wide receiver to average double-digit PPR points per game this season. However, Shakir has become tough to trust with how run-heavy the Bills have become, in addition to how spread out they are in the passing game. He profiles as a mid-tier WR3/flex option in Week 15 against a New England Patriots defense that ranks in the middle of the pack in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers.

Cameron Ward Remains Hard to Trust as Rookie Struggles Continue

Saturday, December 13, 10:21 AM

Tennessee Titans quarterback Cameron Ward remains off the fantasy radar heading into Sunday's Week 15 contest against the San Francisco 49ers. Ward has been very disappointing in his first pro season after being selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. The Miami product has 10 touchdowns and 13 touchdowns this season with a poor 59.1% completion rate. He also ranks as just the QB27 in fantasy leagues this year despite playing every offensive snap through 13 games. On a promising note, Ward has scored two touchdowns in two of his last three games. However, he's still struggling to accrue yardage, and the completion rate and turnover problems persist. Ward ranks as the overall QB30 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings and can be benched in all fantasy leagues.
