Khalil Shakir News
Thursday, March 5, 7:35 AM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has led the team in targets and receiving yards in each of the past two seasons, but given the team's reported acquisition of Bears receiver DJ Moore via trade, that streak is likely to come to an end in 2026. Shakir has been a fantasy-relevant depth piece over the past two seasons, largely due to his safe, volume-dependent floor while the Bills struggled to find an Alpha receiver to fill the shoes of Stefon Diggs, who last played for the Bills in 2023. In Moore, they appear to have found that Alpha. While Shakir and Moore do play complementary games, and the spacing provided by a true outside threat could help Shakir see more spike games, his reliable floor will likely become a thing of the past, making him a difficult-to-trust weekly play moving forward.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba News
Friday, March 20, 5:09 PM
The Seattle Seahawks exercised the fifth-year option for wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba on Friday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. As Schefter mentions, this is a precursor to a much larger contract extension that the Seahawks and Smith-Njigba will be working on after the 24-year-old won Offensive Rookie of the Year honors in 2025 in his second season in the league and helped the Seahawks win Super Bowl LX. The former 20th overall pick in 2023 out of Ohio State made his second straight Pro Bowl and led the NFL with 1,793 receiving yards during the regular season while adding 119 receptions and 10 touchdowns. JSN displayed excellent chemistry with quarterback Sam Darnold in 2025 and was nearly impossible to stop by opposing defenses because of his quickness and yards-after-the-catch ability. After his outstanding season, Smith-Njigba will be one of the first receivers off the board in fantasy football drafts later this year.
