Who Should I Start? Rashid Shaheed or Xavier Worthy

Tuesday, December 9, 2:53 PM

Seattle wide receiver Rashid Shaheed is coming off his best game in a Seahawks uniform and is currently rostered in about 50% of leagues, making him an interesting waiver add in Week 15. In the Week 14 win over the Falcons, he caught four of his five targets for 67 yards, while his 100-yard kick return touchdown blew open what was a tight game to that point. Shaheed's usage since being traded to Seattle had been underwhelming, but his 76% of snaps lined up wide against Atlanta marked a season-high, and his 12.8-yard average depth of target was nearly two and a half yards higher than he had seen across his first four games with the Seahawks. Seattle faces a suddenly reeling Colts team in Week 15 that ranks 29th in the league in fantasy points above expectation surrendered to the wide receiver position.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy has often taken a backseat to Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce this season, but this week, he will also have to contend with one of the toughest defenses in the league. Worthy caught four passes for 61 yards and rushed twice for 13 yards in last week's Thanksgiving loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The speedy wideout finished second on the team in receiving yardage, but it should be tougher sledding this week against Houston. The Texans defense has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season, which does not bode well for Worthy, given his lower target share. Worthy is ranked WR40 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a deeper league flex option in Week 14.
