Rashid Shaheed Fantasy Stats

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed is a risky starting option in Week 13 against the Minnesota Vikings. Shaheed is still finding his way as a member of the Seahawks. His snap count numbers continue improving as the weeks wear on, but his volume remains low. Shaheed was held without a catch in Week 12 after earning five targets in Week 11. The Seahawks have not yet unlocked Shaheed's big-play ability. However, with wide receiver Tory Horton (shin) on injured reserve, the Seahawks need a player to unlock the deep area of the field. The Vikings are No. 2 against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. However, all Shaheed needs is one big play to deliver a great fantasy day. Unfortunately, Shaheed is not a worthy starting option in Week 13, given the Vikings' solid defense and his lack of involvement. For now, he is a worthy bench stash until the Seahawks are able to figure out how to use him.

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.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed could see his involvement increase in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Rams. Seattle will be without wide receiver Tory Horton (groin/shin) in this game. Horton is Seattle's other deep-play threat who could threaten Shaheed's touches. Shaheed was only on the field for 34% of the Seahawks' offensive snaps in Week 11. Part of that was likely due to the game script removing the need for additional offensive output as Seattle was dominating the Cardinals. Still, Seattle was intentional with trying to get Shaheed the ball. He garnered three targets, including a couple of plays clearly schemed for him. The Rams are near the top of the league in defending all facets of the game. However, all Shaheed needs is one big play to make his fantasy day. Ironically, Shaheed just faced the Rams in Week 9 as a member of the New Orleans Saints. He reeled in five catches for 68 targets for a solid fantasy day. As such, Shaheed could be a solid dart throw if you are in dire straits at the wide receiver position.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed was acquired less than one week ago, but he could make an immediate impact while facing off against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 10. The 27-year-old had 44 catches, 499 yards, and two touchdowns through nine games with poor quarterback play in New Orleans, so the sky is the limit as he gets paired up with a gunslinging quarterback in Sam Darnold, who threw for 330 yards and four touchdowns just last week. While Shaheed may face a brief adjustment period as he acclimates to the new system, we expect that he'll be thrust into a high-volume role pretty quickly, even if by necessity. Seattle is dealing with numerous wide receiver injuries, leaving Shaheed in line to share No. 2 receiver duties with Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel). Managers should view Shaheed as a WR3/flex most weeks. His floor and ceiling should both increase after just a few games with the Seahawks.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed "might need to play extensively" in Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. Henderson notes that Shaheed, who was acquired from the New Orleans Saints earlier this week, may be tasked with handling a large workload as the Seahawks overcome injuries to receivers Cooper Kupp (heel, hamstring), Jake Bobo (calf), Dareke Young (hip), and Tory Horton (groin/shin) is doubtful. Of that group, Kupp is the only one with a real chance to play. Shaheed and Kupp both figure to get involved alongside alpha receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Shaheed is more of a big-play threat while Kupp offers a reliable presence in the short passing game. The 27-year-old is a low-floor, high-ceiling WR3 heading into a matchup against a Cardinals defense that most recently allowed Dallas' top two receivers to combine for 13 catches and 164 yards.

The Seattle Seahawks are acquiring wide receiver Rashid Shaheed from the New Orleans Saints on Tuesday, sources tell Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. It's unknown what the Saints are receiving as compensation from the Seahawks. Jaxon Smith-Njigba has been one of the best receivers in the NFL for the Seahawks so far in his second NFL season, but now Seattle will have a legitimate deep threat for rising quarterback Sam Darnold as they push to become a real Super Bowl contender in the second half of the season. Shaheed, 27, had 44 catches on 66 targets for 499 yards and two touchdowns over nine games in New Orleans while working mostly with QB Spencer Rattler. In Seattle, he should have a more stable floor and a higher ceiling in fantasy football in a passing offense that is humming right now. The addition of Shaheed will be bad news for rookie receiver Tory Horton, who caught two touchdowns in the Sunday night win over the Washington Commanders. UPDATE: The Seahawks are sending fourth- and fifth-round draft picks in 2026 to the Saints.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (hip) is officially active for Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Los Angeles Rams. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity this past week. Shaheed is a big-play threat who has looked solid in his role as the No. 2 receiver behind Chris Olave, despite New Orleans' offensive struggles this year. The 27-year-old ranks as the overall WR29 in PPR leagues with 39 catches, 431 receiving yards, and a pair of touchdowns. He had his best game of the season last week as he caught nine of 12 targets for 75 yards (plus a lost fumble). The Saints switched quarterbacks at halftime in Week 8, handing the offense from Spencer Rattler to Tyler Shough. Shough remains installed as the team's starter for Week 9, but it remains to be seen if or how the rookie can elevate Shaheed's game. For now, Shaheed continues to rank as a WR3/flex in most fantasy leagues.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (hip) is expected to play in Week 9's matchup with the Los Angeles Rams, despite being deemed questionable with a hip injury. The 27-year-old practiced in a limited capacity all week and is projected to be out there for rookie quarterback Tyler Shough's NFL debut. Shaheed is coming off one of his more productive outings of the campaign, nabbing a career-high nine passes in the Saints' losing effort to the Buccaneers. As of now, it's unclear in what capacity he'll play, though the team sure could use him against a Rams defensive unit that's yielded the third-fewest points per game through eight weeks (16.7). He'll be a low-end flex option for this weekend's slate of action.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (hip) is listed as questionable, but is trending positively for Week 9's matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, according to Jeff Nowak of Audacy Sports. Shaheed was a limited participant in practice every day this week after picking up the injury in the Saints' blowout loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 8. However, Shaheed had his most productive game of the season, setting career highs in targets (12) and receptions (9) while totaling 75 yards. The 27-year-old should be expected to suit up on Sunday and catch passes from rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, who is making his first career start against a stout Rams defense.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (hip) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. It appears that Shaheed picked up a hip injury during last weekend's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 27-year-old hauled in a season-high nine receptions on 12 targets for 75 yards in the defeat. This was a nice performance for Shaheed who has been held in check recently. It doesn't sound like this hip issue should hold him out in Week 9, but fantasy managers should check back on Thursday and Friday. If active, Shaheed should be considered a flex option for the Week 9 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.
