Rashid Shaheed
WR - New Orleans Saints - IR
Availability
Rashid Shaheed (knee) will miss the remainder of the 2024 season after undergoing a procedure to repair his meniscus.
Fantasy Impact
Shaheed underwent surgery to repair his meniscus on Thursday and is set to miss the remainder of the season while he recovers. He's facing a four-to-six month recovery period, so it's likely that he will be fully ready to go for the 2025 season if all goes to plan with his recovery. This is bad news for New Orleans' offense, as they will now have to look to players like Bub Means, Cedrick Wilson Jr., and Juwan Johnson to step up and play a bigger role in his absence moving forward.
Rashid Shaheed (knee) has been placed on injured reserve, knocking him out for at least the next four weeks.
Fantasy Impact
Shaheed recently underwent surgery on his meniscus, and the team has decided to place him on injured reserve. That means that he will be out for the next four weeks at the very least, and it's quite possible that his absence will extend beyond that. His absence will open the door for players like Bub Means and Cedrick Wilson Jr. to step up and see more work on New Orleans' offense for the foreseeable future.
Rashid Shaheed (knee) is going to have surgery on his meniscus and is a candidate to be placed on IR.
Fantasy Impact
Shaheed recently suffered a knee injury, and it has turned out to be a serious issue for the speedy wideout. He needs to undergo surgery on his meniscus and is a candidate to be placed on injured reserve, which would knock him out for the next four weeks at the very least. The Saints will also be without Chris Olave (concussion) in Week 7, so the team may need to look to players like Juwan Johnson and Taysom Hill (ribs) to get a lot more work in their offense for the foreseeable future.
Rashid Shaheed missed his second straight practice on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Chris Olave (concussion) was also absent again on Tuesday. The Saints could be without their top-two wide receivers on Thursday against the Broncos.
Rashid Shaheed missed practice on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
It is worth noting with it being a short week for the Saints. Chris Olave (concussion) also missed practice. If he is healthy, Shaheed will be a risky fringe WR3 with Spencer Rattler under center again.
