Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel Won't Practice On Wednesday
4 weeks agoBuffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receivers Khalil Shakir (ankle) and Curtis Samuel (foot, toe) will not practice on Wednesday. Samuel's injuries were suffered in the Week 5 loss to the Houston Texans on Sunday, while Shakir was inactive for that game after being hurt the week prior. Shakir is the bigger name to follow for fantasy purposes. The 24-year-old didn't practice at all last week before being inactive, and another DNP to kick off the week isn't a great sign for his availability in Week 6, especially with a matchup against the division-rival New York Jets upcoming on Monday night. Buffalo's offense struggled without quarterback Josh Allen's top target available. Allen spread the ball around to rookie Keon Coleman, Mack Hollins, Samuel and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. Shakir's fantasy outlook remains very cloud this week, and if he does end up playing, he's eyeing a tough matchup against Jets corner Sauce Gardner.
