sleeper-rotowire+8 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Per Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com, "there's currently optimism" that Shakir (undisclosed) will be available Week 1 against the Texans on Sunday, Sept. 13 Since making an appearance preseason Week 1 on Aug. 15, Shakir has been sidelined due to an undisclosed injury, including no activity at Tuesday's practice. The Bills will post their first Week 1 injury report next Wednesday, and how he's listed then will provide a sense for his status ahead of the regular-season opener

Optimism Surrounding Khalil Shakir's Week 1 Availability
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir (undisclosed) has missed practice time recently with an undisclosed injury, but there is optimism that he will be available for the Week 1 regular-season opener on Sunday, Sept. 13, against the Houston Texans, sources told Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports. The Bills are being cautious with him. The 26-year-old former fifth-rounder from Boise State has yet to practice with the rest of the team this week, but if his injury is not serious, he should return to the field next week and be ready to go against Houston next Sunday. Going into his fifth year in the NFL, Shakir shouldn't be treated as much more than a WR4/flex with limited upside in Buffalo's offense after the Bills added DJ Moore in an offseason trade with the Chicago Bears. Shakir had career highs across the board in 2024 with 76 catches, 821 receiving yards, and four touchdowns in 15 games, but he fell back down to 72 catches, 719 yards, and four TDs in 16 games in 2025. The addition of Moore makes it unlikely that Shakir will improve on his career numbers from 2024

Khalil Shakir - Still not practicing
sleeper-rotowire+8 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Shakir (undisclosed) remains sidelined at Tuesday's practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports. Shakir was able to suit up for preseason Week 1 against the Panthers on Saturday, Aug. 15, hauling in both of his targets for 41 yards while playing eight offensive snaps. However, he's been out of drills since Aug. 20 and didn't suit up for the Bills' final two exhibitions due to an undisclosed injury. Buffalo opens the regular season on Sunday, Sept. 13 at Houston, giving him less than two weeks to get himself ready for game action

Skyler Bell a Dynasty Target Only Entering his Rookie Season
Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Skyler Bell tested well at the NFL Combine, which earned him a fourth-round pick in the NFL draft. He ranked in the 91st percentile in the 40-yard dash, 98th percentile in the burst score, 95th percentile in the agility score, and 96th percentile in catch radius. In his final year at UConn, he burst onto the scene, hauling in 101 of his 144 targets for 1,278 yards (12.7 yards per catch) and 13 touchdowns. He finds himself playing with one of, if not the best, quarterbacks in the NFL in Josh Allen. Bell finds himself in a crowded wide receiver room and will be competing for targets between 29-year-old DJ Moore, 26-year-old Khalil Shakir, 26-year-old Joshua Palmer, and 23-year-old Keon Coleman. With Coleman finding himself in the doghouse multiple times in 2025 and looking like a bust after being drafted 33rd overall in the 2024 draft, Bell could work his way into the third wide receiver option for Allen. That being said, Bell profiles as more of a Z receiver, moving around and lining up in the slot, which profiles similarly to Shakir's game, and Shakir is one of Allen's go-to targets. Allen has been known to distribute the wealth amongst all his pass catchers in his career, and reports from camp have suggested that the Bills want to get superstar James Cook III more involved in the passing game as well. Bell profiles as a dynasty stash for the time being
