Bills' Khalil Shakir: Leading WR on Sunday
Khalil Shakir had eight receptions on 12 targets for 70 yards in Sunday's 30-21 victory over the Chiefs.Shakir finished as the Buffalo Bills' leading receiver in a decisive victory over another conference contender. The 24-year-old has blossomed into a consistent fantasy asset in his third year. Through 10 games this season, Shakir is just 12 yards shy of matching his entire production during the 2023 regular season in seven fewer games. The receiver's lack of touchdowns (two) has kept him from becoming a certified fantasy breakout as the Bills enter a bye week.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Busiest pass catcher in win
Khalil Shakir brought in six of nine targets for 58 yards in the Buffalo Bills' 30-20 win over the Colts on Sunday.Shakir recorded team-high reception and target numbers while checking in second in receiving yards. Shakir primarily works in a short-area role but did log a 30-yard catch Sunday, and he now has at least six receptions in four consecutive contests. Shakir will look to record his first touchdown catch since Week 3 in a Week 11 home showdown against the Chiefs.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Typical production in Week 9 win
Khalil Shakir caught six of seven targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Dolphins.Shakir finished second on the team in receiving yards behind Ray Davis (70), who got the vast majority of his production on a 63-yard touchdown catch. The Buffalo Bills were without wide receiver Amari Cooper (wrist) for this one, but that didn't meaningfully affect Shakir, who is averaging 5.3 catches for 58.9 receiving yards per game heading into a Week 10 road game against the Colts.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Could be team's top wideout Sunday
Khalil Shakir, receiver Keon Coleman and tight end Dalton Kincaid are expected to operate as quarterback Josh Allen's primary options in the passing game Sunday against the Dolphins due to Amari Cooper (wrist) being inactive for the contest, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.The absence of Cooper may not necessarily result in an improved outlook for Shakir in Week 9; the third-year wideout had actually posted his two highest catch and target totals of the season (7-65-0 receiving line on seven targets in Week 7, 9-107-0 on 10 targets in Week 8) in the Buffalo Bills' first two games following the acquisition of Cooper from the Browns. That being said, the opportunity for Shakir to play more snaps should be available with Cooper out of the mix, and if the Bills find themselves in a negative game script and end up eschewing the run in the second half, Shakir would presumably benefit to some degree.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Cracks century mark in win
Khalil Shakir finished with nine receptions (10 targets) for 107 yards in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Seahawks.Shakir finished with a game-high total of 107 receiving yards, marking the first time in 2024 he has surpassed 100 yards in single outing. New addition Amari Cooper was limited to just one reception in a run-heavy contest, but both receivers should continue to start across from each other moving forward. Shakir should be considered at least a flex option in most formats heading into next Sunday's tilt against the Dolphins.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Perfect in Week 7 win
Khalil Shakir recorded seven receptions on seven targets for 65 yards in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Titans.Shakir's role in Buffalo's new-look offense after the addition of Amari Cooper was unclear entering this matchup, but he still led the team in receptions. Despite that, his numbers were muted relative to both Cooper and Keon Coleman -- both of whom hit for big plays -- as Shakir was used primarily in the short areas of the field. Shakir should remain a key target for Josh Allen due to the duo's pre-existing rapport, and he could become more efficient with defensive attention spread across multiple pass catchers.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Joined by Cooper in receiver room
Khalil Shakir is expected to move down a spot on the depth chart after the Buffalo Bills acquired Amari Cooper from the Browns on Tuesday, Matt Bove of 7 News Buffalo reports.After trading Stefon Diggs to the Texans in April, the Bills had been leaning on a committee of receivers to help replace the four-time Pro Bowler's production through the first six weeks of the season. Shakir had been the de facto No. 1 option and led the position group in catches (20), receiving yards (249) and targets (21), but he'll fall back into the kind of supporting role he filled in 2023 while Cooper presumably steps in as quarterback Josh Allen's new top target. Bove speculates that Shakir and rookie Keon Coleman will line up alongside Cooper as the Bills' preferred wideout trio, but Mack Hollins and Curtis Samuel could still factor into the rotation as well.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Grabs two receptions in Week 6
Khalil Shakir (ankle) caught both of his targets for 19 yards in Monday's 23-20 victory over the Jets.Shakir posted his lowest fantasy output of the season in his return from a one-game absence due to an ankle injury. Despite the poor showing, Shakir still looks to be the Buffalo Bills' de facto No. 1 receiver, though quarterback Josh Allen has spread the ball around liberally among the team's pass catchers.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Available versus Jets
Khalil Shakir (ankle) is active for Monday night's game against the Jets.Shakir didn't play in the Buffalo Bills' Week 5 loss to the Texans and was listed as a non-participant on Thursday and Friday's practice reports, but he was able to log a limited session Saturday before being deemed questionable for Monday's contest. It remains be seen how close to 100 percent he'll be, but barring any in-game setbacks he'll have an opportunity to reclaim his role in a Buffalo WR corps that also includes Keon Coleman, Mack Hollins, Curtis Samuel and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
