Rashid Shaheed Ready for Larger Role

Thursday, September 3, 5:49 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed joined the team midseason last year in a trade from the Saints, and he immediately added a big-play threat to the offense and on special teams. After working with Sam Darnold throughout training camp and the preseason, Shaheed seems much more comfortable in the offense, according to Gregg Bell, and the veteran speedster has the potential to be a big part of Seattle's passing game. The Seahawks will lean heavily on Jaxson Smith-Njigba as their top receiver again this year, but the only other real competition for Shaheed is from veteran Cooper Kupp since Tory Horton (shin) is still recovering from surgery. Shaheed is the No. 55 WR in RotoBaller's rankings, but he brings a lot of big-play potential and a good ceiling as a sleeper to target late in drafts. If he lands on the waiver wire, he'll also be a name to watch in the early going to see if he's in a larger role in his first full season in Seattle.

Keon Coleman Ditches Walking Boot

Thursday, August 27, 1:59 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (foot, toe) was seen on the sideline on Thursday before the team's preseason finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers without a walking boot, according to Alex Brasky of Sports Illustrated. Coleman will not play on Thursday night after spraining his right foot/toe in the preseason opener, but with his foot no longer in a walking boot, he could progress towards being ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener against the Houston Texans on Sunday, Sept. 13. Despite being a disappointment in his first two seasons in Buffalo after he was selected in the second round from Florida State, the Bills' brass hasn't given up on him and expect him to be a key part in the passing game in 2026 alongside newcomer DJ Moore and Khalil Shakir. Coleman had 38 catches on 59 targets for 404 yards and four touchdowns in 13 regular-season games in 2025 and was benched for being late to a team meeting. Maturity issues and drops have tanked his fantasy value in both redraft and keeper leagues, with Coleman currently being ranked as the WR116 at RotoBaller. If Coleman is out or limited in Week 1, Joshua Palmer and rookie Skyler Bell would be battling for WR3 duties in Houston.
