• Bills' Khalil Shakir: Agrees to four-year extension

  25D ago • By RotoWire

  Shakir and Buffalo agreed to terms Tuesday on a four-year contract extension worth up to $60.2 million, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Shakir's new deal reportedly includes $32 million guaranteed at signing. The 2022 fifth-round pick led the Bills in targets, catches and yards during the 2024 regular season, posting a career-best 76-821-4 receiving line on 100 targets. The sure-handed slot specialist also had exactly six catches in all three of Buffalo's playoff games. Looking ahead to the 2025 campaign, Shakir's ability to create yards after the catch positions him to once again be one of Josh Allen's go-to targets.

• Bills' Khalil Shakir: Another six catches in AFCCG loss

  01/27/2025 • By RotoWire

  Shakir caught six of seven targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 32-29 loss to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game. Shakir had six catches in each of Buffalo's three playoff games after leading the team in targets (100), catches (76) and receiving yards (821) during the regular season. The sure-handed receiver can reliably move the chains and do damage after the catch, but Shakir hasn't been much of a red-zone threat so far, with just seven touchdowns through 46 regular-season NFL games. The 2022 fifth-round draft pick will be back in Buffalo for the final year of his rookie deal in 2025.

• Bills' Khalil Shakir: Six catches help team reach AFCCG

  01/20/2025 • By RotoWire

  Shakir caught six of seven targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 27-25 AFC divisional-round win over the Ravens. Shakir was easily Josh Allen's favorite target, as no teammate had more than 15 receiving yards or three targets. After leading the Bills in catches (76), receiving yards (821) and targets (100) in the regular season, Shakir has been the team's leading pass catcher in the playoffs with 12 catches for 128 yards on 13 targets in two postseason games. Shakir should continue to play a pivotal role in Buffalo's passing game against the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game.

• Bills' Khalil Shakir: Held out of Week 18 action

  01/08/2025 • By RotoWire

  Shakir didn't play any snaps during Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Patriots. Shakir, alongside a handful of other key players, didn't see any action in Week 18 with Buffalo having already secured the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs heading into the day. He'll resume handling his usual starting role at wideout during Sunday's wild-card round matchup at home against the Broncos. Shakir concluded the regular season having tallied career-high marks across the board, despite appearing in just 15 games. He compiled 76 catches for 821 yards and four scores on 100 targets.

• Bills' Khalil Shakir: Minor role in Week 17 win

  12/29/2024 • By RotoWire

  Shakir caught three of six targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 40-14 win over the Jets. Shakir caught nearly every pass directed his way in the first half of the season, but that hasn't been the case once the weather started to get colder. Only three of the 45 passes thrown Shakir's way through Week 9 fell incomplete, but he has been targeted on at least three incomplete passes in six of seven subsequent games. If Shakir and Buffalo's other starters are rested against the Patriots in Week 18, he'll finish the regular season with 76 catches for 821 yards and four touchdowns on 100 targets, all career highs.
