Rashid Shaheed fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 2 (2024). Should you start or sit Rashid Shaheed for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/Flex
ANALYSIS: Rashid Shaheed should be considered a strong WR3 or flex option in deeper fantasy football leagues this week as the Saints face the Cowboys.
Shaheed’s Week 1 performance, where he recorded three catches on five targets for 73 yards and a touchdown, showed his big-play ability despite the Saints shifting to a run-heavy approach in the second half due to their large lead.
This efficiency demonstrates his value, especially in a game script that could lean more pass-heavy against a tough Cowboys defense. Shaheed has shown he can stretch the field and make the most of his opportunities, giving him solid upside in deeper formats.
The first touchdown of the first Sunday this season belongs to Derek Carr, Rashid Shaheed and the @Saints!

Facing the Cowboys, the Saints will likely rely more on the passing game to keep up with Dallas’ potent offense. Shaheed’s speed and ability to make plays downfield make him a valuable target, particularly when the Saints need chunk yardage.
With his knack for scoring and potential for high-yardage gains, Shaheed is a worthy WR3 or flex play, especially in leagues where managers are looking for a player with boom potential. Given the expected game flow, he should see enough volume to make an impact this week.
