Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Khalil Shakir

Sunday, October 13, 4:37 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught six of his seven targets for 53 yards and two scores in their Week 6 loss. McLaurin had a modest day from a yardage standpoint but made an impact in the red zone as he caught both a seven and a six-yard pass for scores. After getting off to a slow start to the season, the Ohio State product has now eclipsed double-digit PPR points in every game since Week 3 and has emerged as a solid WR2. McLaurin should remain locked into all lineups heading into Week 7, as he faces a Carolina defense that has surrendered the 26th-most points to opposing wideouts.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir caught two passes for 19 yards in the team's 23-20 victory over the New York Jets. Those were his only two targets of the game. Shakir returned from a one-week absence to play on Monday Night Football but didn't play his regular allotment of snaps. The Buffalo coaching staff appeared to play it safe with their top wide receiver, who was questionable with an ankle injury when the day began. Once Shakir is fully healthy, he'll be in the weekly flex conversation. Fantasy managers will need to see it first before inserting Shakir back into starting lineups.
