Khalil Shakir's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir caught all six of his targets for 61 yards in the team's 31-7 win over the Denver Broncos in the opening round of the postseason. It's the first time since Week 7 that Shakir secured all his targets and the sixth time this season. He led the Bills in receptions and targets but trailed Curtis Samuel (68) in yards thanks to a long completion to the latter. Shakir remains Josh Allen's favorite receiver and should be heavily involved when the Bills host the Baltimore Ravens in the Divisional round next weekend.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir was Josh Allen's top pass-catching weapon throughout the regular season. Shakir led the Bills in receptions (76) and receiving yards (821). He'll likely be utilized often against the Denver Broncos in the first round of the playoffs. Because he lines up in the slot on over 70% of his offensive snaps, it will help him better avoid shutdown corner Pat Surtain II. However, because Allen tends to spread the love in the passing game, none of the Bills receivers are top-tier options for fantasy lineups this weekend. Shakir is the best of the shaky Buffalo options.

What do you get when a team has clinched their playoff seeding entering the final week of the regular season? A blend of starters and backups playing on the football field. Head coach Sean McDermott promised that earlier in the week. That could mean an early exit for Buffalo's most utilized wide receiver, Khalil Shakir. The slot receiver has caught 76 passes for 821 yards and four touchdowns in 15 games. He, alongside Keon Coleman and Amari Cooper (back), can't be depended upon against the Patriots due to uncertain playing time and Mitchell Trubisky playing most of the quarterback snaps.
