Saints Tender Rashid Shaheed
Published: Mar 10, 2024 at 04:22 AM
The New Orleans Saints tendered the exclusive rights to wide receiver Rashid Shaheed for a one-year tag worth $985,000. Shaheed caught 46 passes for 719 receiving yards and five touchdowns over five touchdowns in 15 games in 2023. The Saints plan to release Michael Thomas this offseason, and Shaheed could secure New Orleans' No. 2 receiver role behind top wideout Chris Olave. While Thomas was sidelined from Weeks 12 through 18, Shaheed caught 15 passes for 194 yards and two touchdowns over five games. The 25-year-old did miss two weeks due to a thigh injury. Shaheed has always been a boom-or-bust fantasy option and is a better fantasy option in best-ball leagues than standard PPR formats.
