Top Khalil Shakir News

  • Bills' Khalil Shakir: Not suited up Thursday

    Shakir (undisclosed) isn't in uniform for Thursday's preseason contest against the Steelers, Alex Brasky of SI.com reports.

    Shakir now will miss a second consecutive exhibition due to an undisclosed injury that has sidelined him for the past week. Fellow position mates Keon Coleman (foot/toe) and Tyrell Shavers (knee, active/PUP) also aren't suited up Thursday. Shakir will set his sights on getting healthy for the Bills' Week 1 road matchup with the Texans on Sunday, Sept. 13.

  • Bills' Khalil Shakir: Won't play Saturday

    Shakir (undisclosed) won't play in Saturday's preseason game against Cleveland, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Shakir will join DJ Moore, Keon Coleman (foot/toe), Joshua Palmer and Skyler Bell (lower body) on the sidelines for Saturday's exhibition contest. Shakir is currently working through an unspecified injury, and while it doesn't appear to be a severe issue, it could prevent him from playing in the Bills' preseason finale against the Steelers on Thursday.

  • Bills' Khalil Shakir: Managing unspecified injury

    Shakir (undisclosed) didn't practice Tuesday due to an injury, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.

    The nature of Shakir's injury has not been revealed. He seems unlikely to suit up for Saturday's preseason game against the Browns, though no official declaration has come on that front. DJ Moore (lower body), Keon Coleman (foot) and Skyler Bell (lower body) are also dealing with injuries in Buffalo's banged-up wide receiver room.

  • Bills' Khalil Shakir: Two grabs in preseason opener

    Shakir caught both his targets for 41 yards in Saturday's 29-14 preseason win over the Panthers.

    The fifth-year wideout caught the first pass attempt of the preseason from Josh Allen, connecting on a 21-yard gain that helped set up a field goal in the first quarter. Shakir started alongside DJ Moore (lower body), and both were productive while Buffalo's first-stringers were in the game. The offseason addition of Moore gives the team a true No. 1 wide receiver, but his presence on the outside shouldn't have a big impact on Shakir's volume in the slot. Shakir has topped 70 catches in back-to-back campaigns, averaging 74 receptions on 97.5 targets for 770 yards and four TDs while missing three total regular-season contests in those two years.

  • Bills' Khalil Shakir: Set for key role once again

    As his fifth season with Bills approaches, Shakir remains a key component of a WR corps that's been bolstered by offseason trade acquisition DJ Moore and rookie fourth-rounder Skyler Bell.

    Shakir is coming off a 2025 regular season in which he put together a 72-719-4 receiving line on a team-high 95 targets, marking the second year in a row he paced the Bills in that category. While Moore now projects as QB Josh Allen's top WR target, Shakir should still see enough volume out of the slot in 2026 to maintain a degree of fantasy PPR utility. Meanwhile, as Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic has previously noted, the other starting spot in 11 personnel (three receivers) is up for grabs as training camp approaches, with Joshua Palmer, Keon Coleman, Bell and Tyrell Shavers (knee) set to compete for slotting behind Moore and Shakir.
