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

Saturday, November 1, 4:53 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has emerged as the go-to option for quarterback Josh Allen as the team heads into the second half of the season. The 25-year-old receiver has seen five or more targets in each of the last four games and has established himself in the passing game as the team has been without tight end Dalton Kincaid. With Kincaid returning, Shakir should have more room to operate against a Chiefs defense that will be struggling to determine what option they will take away. Kansas City's third-ranked pass defense, allowing 177.8 yards per game, will be the matchup to watch, leading to a lower floor than expected for this offense. Shakir projects as a flex option heading into Week 9.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion) was able to return to the practice field on Tuesday. This is positive news after Mims began the week on the sidelines during Monday's estimated practice. Mims has been out since suffering a concussion during the Week 8 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. He remains in concussion protocol, but Mims has a chance to suit up for Thursday's Week 10 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Fantasy managers should check back on Wednesday for another update on his status.
