BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Flex / WR3
ANALYSIS: Fantasy managers should start Rashid Shaheed in Week 3 against the Eagles, especially after his impressive Week 2 performance, where he recorded four catches for 96 yards and a touchdown.
Shaheed has quickly established himself as a deep-threat weapon in the Saints’ offense, and his ability to generate explosive plays makes him a high-upside fantasy option.
The Eagles’ defense has allowed significant yardage to wide receivers so far this season, which creates a favorable matchup for Shaheed to continue his momentum.
With defenses likely focusing on other key players like Chris Olave, Shaheed could see additional opportunities to exploit coverage lapses downfield.

Shaheed’s versatility and speed make him a dynamic asset for the Saints and fantasy managers. While his big-play ability may result in some inconsistency, the Eagles’ secondary has struggled to contain fast receivers, making Shaheed an appealing Flex option with considerable upside.
His involvement in the offense continues to grow, and his knack for making big plays down the field makes him a strong start in Week 3, especially for managers looking to capitalize on his potential for long receptions and touchdown opportunities.
Fantasy managers should feel comfortable starting Shaheed as a Flex or WR3 option.
