Who Should I Start? Khalil Shakir or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Thursday, November 20, 11:38 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir caught eight of his 10 targets for 110 yards during Thursday's Week 12 loss against the Houston Texans. He also lost a fumble. Shakir padded his stats with a pair of impressive plays in the fourth quarter. The first was a 44-yard catch-and-run that turned a third-and-long into a first down. The second was a nifty lateral from Joshua Palmer to Shakir that converted a 4th-and-27. Despite the loss, Shakir's big game against a strong Texans secondary was very impressive, and it should vault him into the low-end WR2 tier for Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon did not give an update on wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr.'s (appendix) status for Week 13 on Monday, according to Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. "When he's physically and mentally healthy to play, he'll play," Gannon said. Harrison has missed the last two games after undergoing an appendectomy. In the 23-year-old's absence, Michael Wilson has suddenly turned into Ja'Marr Chase, catching 25 of his 33 targets for 303 receiving yards. Greg Dortch has also seen a big uptick in production, catching 12 of his 15 targets for 119 yards and two touchdowns. As of right now, it seems as though Harrison will be in line to miss a third straight game this Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If Harrison is out again, Wilson will be a must-start in all fantasy formats because of his major role upgrade.
