Khalil Shakir's Recent Production Comes With Target Concerns

Saturday, October 17, 7:40 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has produced 162 receiving yards over his last two games despite a considerable difference in opportunities. He caught seven passes for 82 yards on eight targets against New England in Week 4, then needed just three receptions to finish with 80 yards against the Rams. A 57-yard gain in overtime accounted for most of that second performance. Shakir leads Buffalo with 26 targets through five games, but that works out to just 5.2 per contest, and he has yet to score a touchdown this season. The Raiders have struggled to contain opposing offenses recently, giving Shakir a reasonable chance to deliver another useful performance. Still, his production has relied heavily on yards after the catch and occasional explosive plays. He remains a WR3 or flex consideration in PPR leagues, particularly if Buffalo continues dealing with injuries at receiver.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Worth Holding Following Trade to Houston?

Wednesday, October 21, 12:47 PM

In his first game as a member of the Houston Texans in Week 6, wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. recorded three catches for 34 yards on four targets. Harrison Jr. got off to a nightmarish start to the season with the Arizona Cardinals, hauling in just five catches for 85 yards and a touchdown on 13 targets across four games. The 24-year-old has also largely been a disappointment for fantasy managers since being selected by Arizona fourth overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. However, Harrison Jr. may have new life now that he's been traded. With star wideout Nico Collins operating as the primary X receiver in Houston, Harrison Jr. could be freed up to play a more versatile role in the Texans' offense. Harrison Jr. remains tough for fantasy managers to trust, but he may be worth holding until his role in Houston becomes clearer.
