Khalil Shakir - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Paces team in receiving yards Shakir secured all four targets for 58 yards in the Bills' 23-6 win over the Vikings on Monday night.

Impact Shakir tied for the team lead in receptions while setting the pace in receiving yards on a night when Josh Allen spread the ball around to eight different targets. The veteran receiver continues to maintain his trademark steady presence in Buffalo's air attack, now having recorded at least Monday night's catch and yardage tallies in four of the last five games. Shakir carries a bright outlook into a Week 10 road matchup against a vulnerable Jets defense on Sunday.

1 HOUR AGO • ROTOWIRE

Has TD called back, finishes with 5-64 Shakir caught five of six targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 36-10 win over the Ravens.

Impact Shakir initially appeared to get in the end zone for a six-yard touchdown early in the first quarter, but he was ruled out at the one-yard line after review. Josh Allen then punched in the one-yard touchdown two plays later. On the day, Shakir paced the Bills with his five grabs and tied for second on the team in targets, one behind DJ Moore. Shakir has yet to hit 100 yards in a game this season and has just one touchdown, settling in as a low-ceiling WR4 in fantasy, especially when both Moore and Dalton Kincaid are healthy.

Buffalo Bills' defensive deficiencies continue being exposed as team enters its bye week off

Another Josh Allen highlight-reel touchdown and a 5-1 start aren’t enough to mask the issues the Buffalo Bills face on defense entering their bye week

OCTOBER 19 • Associated Press

Gets into end zone Sunday Shakir brought in four of six targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 33-30 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

Impact Shakir posted his second-lowest yardage figure of the season, but the talented veteran recorded his first touchdown of the campaign on a nine-yard grab just past the midway point of the second quarter. Shakir's target total also tied for his second highest of the campaign, a figure he'd reached on two other occasions. The fifth-year pro should continue to garner his fair share of Josh Allen's attention moving forward, although Shakir's targets could take a slight hit if DJ Moore (shoulder) returns for a Week 8 home matchup against the Ravens on Sunday, Nov. 1, following a Week 7 bye.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Makes long catch in OT Shakir brought in all three targets for 80 yards in the Bills' 37-34 overtime win over the Rams on Monday night.

Impact On a night when Josh Allen completed just 12 passes, Shakir led the Bills in receiving yards with a figure that marked his second straight 80-yard-plus effort. However, Shakir needed overtime to get there, as he recorded a game-long 57-yard catch and run during Buffalo's first drive of the extra period. Shakir otherwise didn't seem much benefit from the absences of DJ Moore and Joshua Palmer due to shoulder injuries, but he is now averaging an impressive 14.2 yards per catch heading into a Week 6 road matchup against the Raiders.

Season-best production in Week 4 loss Shakir turned seven catches (on eight targets) into 82 yards during the Bills' 29-26 loss to the Patriots on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

Impact Shakir's final stat line Sunday nearly matched the 8-94-0 receiving line (on 15 targets) across the first three games of the regular season. Most of the veteran slot receiver's yards came on a 51-yard connection with Josh Allen late in the second quarter, with the latter finishing the drive with a two-yard rushing touchdown. Unfortunately for Shakir, he also had the ball ripped out of his hands by Robert Spillane within the final seconds of the first half, though the Bills avoided any damage after the defense intercepted Patriots quarterback Drake Maye on the very next play. DJ Moore aggravated a previous shoulder injury during Sunday's loss, and while the shoulder is not considered a long-term issue, Bills pass catchers like Shakir, Keon Coleman and tight end Dalton Kincaid would all see more targets from Allen if Moore cannot play in Week 5 against the Rams on Monday, Oct. 12.

Records 49 all-purpose yards in win Shakir brought in three of six targets for 38 yards and returned one kickoff for 11 yards in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday.

Impact Shakir played a complementary role once again, and although he did finish tied for second in targets on the Bills, he was only third in receptions and fourth in receiving yards. Shakir has seen Dalton Kincaid take on a much bigger role in the passing game over the first two games of the season, but the wideout is still averaging 6.0 targets over that same span and could be due for a boost in workload if DJ Moore misses any games with the shoulder injury that knocked him out of Thursday's contest late in the second quarter. Shakir will next take aim at the Chargers defense in a Week 3 home matchup on Sunday, Sept. 27.

Four catches in Week 1 Shakir caught four of six targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 36-31 win over the Texans.

Impact Shakir finished a distant third on the Bills in receiving yards behind Dalton Kincaid and DJ Moore, each of whom reached the 100-yard mark. Moore paced the team with eight targets in his Bills debut, while Shakir and Kincaid tied for second with six apiece. Shakir gets most of his opportunities on short passes near the line of scrimmage, so he's likely to keep getting looks from Josh Allen after leading the team in targets each of the past two seasons, but most of the downfield opportunities should go to alternative options, thus capping Shakir's ceiling. Buffalo will play its home opener Thursday against the Lions.
