Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Khalil Shakir

Friday, December 12, 10:49 PM

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs is gearing up for another potential revenge game against the Buffalo Bills in Week 15. When these two teams last faced each other in Week 5, Diggs exploded for his best game of the season, amassing 12 targets, 10 catches, and 146 receiving yards. The veteran receiver had an impressive stretch of performances near the middle of the season, but he came back down to earth over the last two weeks, totaling just five catches and zero touchdowns during that span while playing fewer than half of the offensive snaps. Despite recently failing to live up to his expectations, Diggs is still a very talented receiver who has repeatedly earned Drake Maye's trust. He has a strong chance to bounce back against his old team in Week 15. As it stands, he ranks as the overall WR21 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy football rankings.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has been quiet over the recent stretch of games. Shakir broke out for a season-high eight receptions for 110 yards on 10 targets against the Texans in Week 12, but in three games since, he's totaled just four receptions for 18 yards on 10 targets. The 25-year-old wideout is the only Bills wide receiver to average double-digit PPR points per game this season. However, Shakir has become tough to trust with how run-heavy the Bills have become, in addition to how spread out they are in the passing game. He profiles as a mid-tier WR3/flex option in Week 15 against a New England Patriots defense that ranks in the middle of the pack in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers.
