Who Should I Start? Khalil Shakir or Quentin Johnston

If you want consistency, Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir will deliver. Buffalo's slot receiver has failed to reach double-digit PPR fantasy points twice: Once in his first game back from an ankle injury and once in a snowstorm. That's led to Shakir's current standing as the WR25. He has a target share north of 23% and maintains his status as Josh Allen's favorite wide receiver. A blowout will be the primary concern for Shakir's fantasy managers. The Bills are a 14-point home favorite and could take their foot off the gas earlier than usual. Shakir ranks as a low-end, but safe, WR2.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston played an insignificant role in a Thursday Night Football win over the Denver Broncos in Week 16. Johnston tied for the team lead with six targets but made just three catches for a total of 18 yards. The biggest play of the game for Johnston was a dropped pass when he was absolutely wide open and given a perfect pass from his quarterback Justin Herbert. The same drop issues that plagued him throughout his rookie year clearly remain this season despite marked improvement in his overall game. He'll look to bounce back rather than have the ball bounce off his hands in Week 17 against the New England Patriots.
