Who Should I Start? Rashid Shaheed or Keon Coleman

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed is struggling to make an impact in fantasy with his new team. In two games with the Seahawks, Shaheed has just three catches for 30 yards. Seattle seems to be figuring out how to use Shaheed. He possesses legitimate outside wide receiver skills, but Seattle has used him as more of a gadget player to this point. Week 12 against the Tennessee Titans presents a great opportunity for Shaheed to make a splash play. The Titans are No. 26 against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. They do not have the personnel to cover Shaheed and his speed. Additionally, Shaheed is being worked more into the offense. After playing just 34% of the snaps in Week 10, Shaheed jumped to 54% in Week 11. If that number spikes again to the 70% range, we can be confident that he will be a full-time player in this offense. With fellow wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba running wild on the other side of the field, things could shake loose for Shaheed. Monitor his workload in Week 12 to inform future roster management concerning Shaheed.

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Keon Coleman being a healthy scratch in last Thursday night's loss to the Houston Texans was not discipline-related but was due to the short run-up to the game, according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. McDermott said the Bills will "take things one day at a time" with Coleman. McDermott didn't exactly clarify if Coleman will be active for this Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but it would be a surprise if the second-year wideout was not back on the field after being held out the last two games. The 22-year-old was a healthy scratch in Week 11 after being late to a team meeting that Friday. Coleman has been a big disappointment for the Bills and fantasy managers in 2025, catching 32 passes for 330 yards and three touchdowns on 49 targets. He'll be pretty hard to trust as a WR4/flex play in fantasy in Week 13 if he's active.
