Shaheed (concussion) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's game in San Francisco, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Shaheed was forced out in the first quarter of this past Sunday's win at Carolina due to a concussion, but he's made quick work through the protocol for head injuries in the meantime, following up Tuesday's limited walkthrough with back-to-back full sessions. Now the he's confirmed to be available for Week 18, he'll look to build upon the 14-186-0 line on 25 targets that he's managed in eight contests since he joined the Seahawks at the trade deadline.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Full practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Shaheed (concussion) practiced fully Wednesday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Shaheed made an early exit from this past Sunday's win at Carolina with a concussion, but his progression from a limited walkthrough Tuesday to all on-field activity one day later may mean he's on the doorstep of clearing the protocol for head injuries. Still, with an NFC West showdown on tap Saturday at San Francisco, he'll need to gain clearance from an independent neurologist in order to have a chance for Week 18 action.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Deemed limited in walkthrough
Rotowire
Shaheed (concussion) was estimated as a limited participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Shaheed suffered a concussion in the first quarter of Sunday's win over Carolina and is now in the league's five-step protocol. It's at least a promising sign that he was estimated as limited rather than DNP on Tuesday, though Seattle only held a walkthrough. Shaheed will need to clear the protocol to be eligible to play in Saturday's clash against San Francisco that will determine the No. 1 playoff seed in the NFC. Should Shaheed not be able to play, Jake Bobo and Dareke Young could see more targets on offense, with Young and Cam Akers options to take on kick returns duties.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Status up in air for Week 18
Rotowire
Coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that it "seems like it's going well" with Shaheed in regards to the concussion the wide receiver suffered Sunday at Carolina, but the Seahawks won't know if he can progress enough in the protocol for head injuries to put himself in a position to play until later this week, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
The Seahawks have a short week to prepare for Saturday's NFC West showdown at San Francisco, so Shaheed would seem hard-pressed to make it all the way through the concussion protocol and play Week 18. In any case, how he's listed on Seattle's practice reports Tuesday through Thursday may shed light on his odds to suit up. With Cody White (groin) also banged-up in the wake of Week 17 action, the team currently has just four healthy wide receivers (Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp, Jake Bobo and Dareke Young) on the active roster.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Evaluated for possible concussion
Rotowire
Shaheed is being evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Shaheed will be ineligible to return to action Sunday if he is indeed diagnosed with a concussion and placed into the NFL's five-step recovery protocol. While Shaheed is sidelined, Dareke Young and Jake Bobo will handle increased roles on offense and in the return game.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Turns momentum with return TD
Rotowire
Shaheed didn't catch his only target in Thursday's 38-37 overtime win over the Rams, but he had a 31-yard run and a 58-yard punt return touchdown.
Shaheed made the most of his limited touches. His punt return touchdown provided the first six of Seattle's 16 unanswered points in the final 8:03 of regulation, and Shaheed's 31-yard carry came on the team's next offensive play as the Seahawks found a way to get the speedster in space once again. The Seahawks employ a run-first approach on offense and Sam Darnold usually looks Jaxon Smith-Njigba's way when Seattle turns to the air, leaving limited opportunities for supporting players like Shaheed to contribute. That philosophy has led to a 12-3 record, so it's unlikely to change in Week 17 against the Panthers.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Week 16 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Shaheed played well in Week 15 against Indianapolis with five catches for 74 yards on seven targets, and he scored 12.1 PPR points. He now has nine catches for 141 yards on 12 targets in his past two games against the Falcons and Colts, and he could be worth using in three-receiver leagues heading into Week 16 against the Rams. Shaheed had a quiet game against the Rams in Week 11 with two catches for 27 yards on five targets, but he appears to have developed a better rapport with Sam Darnold since then. And the Rams are No. 9 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers, with seven guys scoring at least 11.3 PPR points against Los Angeles in the past five games.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Another well-rounded effort Sunday
Rotowire
Shaheed caught five of seven targets for 74 yards, lost two yards on one carry and ran back six kicks for 137 yards in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Colts.
Shaheed left his mark across the final box score with another well-balanced effort on both offense and special teams. The trade-deadline acquisition struggled out of the gates with Seattle, but he has settled in nicely over his last two games with averages of 4.5 receptions, 70.5 receiving yards and 142.5 return yards. Shaheed's increased usage puts him on the map as a flex option against the Rams on Thursday Night Football in Week 16.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Returns kickoff for TD vs. Atlanta
Rotowire
Shaheed caught four passes (on five targets) for 67 yards during the Seahawks' 37-9 win over the Falcons. He added 148 yards and a touchdown on three kick returns.
It was a slow scoring affair in the first half, but Shaheed turned Sunday's game on its head with a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown to open the second half. Week 14 was his best performance as a Seahawk, as he finished second in catches, targets and receiving yards behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba (seven catches on 10 targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns). Through 14 regular-season games (nine with the Saints and five with the Seahawks), Shaheed has accumulated 52 catches (on 82 targets) for 603 yards and two touchdowns

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: No catches in win
Rotowire
Shaheed didn't catch either of his two targets but rushed once for five yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Titans. He also returned three punts for 40 yards and two kickoffs for 38 yards.
Shaheed played 55 percent of the offensive snaps during his third game with the Seahawks, but he has yet to do much offensively, registering three catches on eight targets for 30 yards and four carries for 27 yards in the span. It will be difficult for fantasy managers to pinpoint when he might finally break a big play, making him a risky option with his new club. His next chance to make an impact will come in Week 13 versus the Vikings.

Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
It wouldn't be surprising to see the Seahawks show off their new toy in this game against the Colts, and Shaheed should know this system since he played for offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak last year in New Orleans. Look for Sam Darnold to take some shots down the field with Shaheed against the Cardinals, who have allowed five receivers to score at least 13.2 PPR points in their past four games. He's worth using as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues, especially with Tory Horton (groin) not expected to play.

Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Expected to play in Week 9
Rotowire
Shaheed, who is questionable to play against the Rams on Sunday due to a hip injury, is likely to suit up, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Shaheed logged season-high marks with nine catches and 12 targets last Sunday against Tampa Bay but also suffered a hip injury. He logged a trio of limited practices this week, which appears to be enough for him to play Sunday. Shaheed will thus likely work in his usual No. 2 wideout role behind Chris Olave.
Shaheed (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Rams, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Shaheed didn't rejoin last week's 23-3 loss to Tampa Bay after exiting in the fourth quarter, but that doesn't mean much given that the Saints were down by 20. He managed limited practice participation Wednesday through Friday this week, with coach Kellen Moore telling reporters Friday that Shaheed, RB Alvin Kamara (ankle) and CB Alontae Taylor (shoulder) are all trending in the right direction. It is possible trade rumors could impact Shaheed's availability or usage, but there was no hint of anything like that from Moore during his media availability Friday.

Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Another limited showing
Rotowire
Shaheed (hip) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
With back-to-back capped practices under his belt to begin Week 9 prep due to a hip injury, Shaheed has only one more opportunity to get back to full Friday, or else risk heading into the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game at the Rams. If he's available Week 9, Shaheed will have a new QB under center, as the Saints are rolling with rookie second-round pick Tyler Shough instead of Spencer Rattler moving forward.

Saints' Rashid Shaheed: WRs to Sit
Rotowire
Shaheed was great in Week 8 against Tampa Bay with nine catches for 75 yards on 12 targets, and he has 21 targets in his past two outings. He also has scored at least 14.5 PPR points in two of his past four games heading into Week 9 at the Rams. But with the quarterback switch to Tyler Shough, as well as a tough matchup against the Rams, I would only start Shaheed in deep three-receiver leagues. He only has two touchdowns on the season, and Shough could be running for his life in his first NFL start on the road. As for Chris Olave, I would still start him in all formats, but lower expectations for him in his first full game with Shough.

Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Tending to hip issue
Rotowire
Shaheed was limited in practice Wednesday due to a hip injury.
This is a new health concern for Shaheed, who previously wasn't listed as limited at any point in the 2025 campaign. He's coming off a performance Sunday against the Buccaneers in which he earned a season-high 12 targets, turning them into nine catches for 75 yards. New Orleans is making a change under center moving forward, with rookie second-round pick Tyler Shough taking over for second-year pro Spencer Rattler. Whether or not that'll be a boon to the team's pass catchers remains to be seen, but first Shaheed's status will be monitored as the week continues to ensure he'll be out there Sunday at the Rams.

Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Leads team with 75 yards Sunday
Rotowire
Shaheed hauled in nine of 12 targets for 75 yards while losing a fumble in Sunday's 23-3 loss to the Buccaneers.
Shaheed's 12 targets and nine receptions crushed his previous highs of nine and six respectively, but he failed to sniff the 114 yards he posted in Week 5. The fourth-year starter has provided a nice floor for those in deeper formats, recording at least four receptions in each of his eight appearances in 2025. Shaheed's overall line of 39-431-2 looks solid on paper, but over half of his production (including both of his touchdowns) have come in three games. Expect Shaheed to continue serving as one of either Spencer Rattler's or Tyler Shough's top targets against the Rams next Sunday.

Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Another four catches in loss
Rotowire
Shaheed secured four of nine targets for 40 yards in the Saints' 26-14 loss to the Bears on Sunday.
Shaheed was the surprise leader in targets on the afternoon for New Orleans while curiously posting four catches for the sixth consecutive game. The speedy fourth-year pro has just two catches of more than 20 yards this season after compiling five in just six 2024 games before his campaign was cut short. The way Spencer Rattler is being asked to manage the offense certainly has something to do with that downturn, but Shaheed should remain a steady contributor in a Week 8 home matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday afternoon.

Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Four grabs in Sunday's loss
Rotowire
Shaheed caught four of six targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 25-19 loss to the Patriots.
The speedy wideout has caught exactly four passes in five straight games, but Sunday's yardage total was his lowest of the season. Shaheed remains dependent on deep throws for significant fantasy value, but with Spencer Rattler getting more confident and comfortable in coach Kellen Moore's offense, connections like last week's 87-yard TD could become more frequent. Shaheed may have a better chance of making an impact in Week 7 against the Bears.

Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Torches Giants for long TD
Rotowire
Shaheed caught four of five targets for 114 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-14 win over the Giants.
Most of that production came on a single play -- an 87-yard catch-and-run in the second quarter that Shaheed took to the house. The fourth-year wideout hadn't exceeded 52 receiving yards in a game this year prior to Sunday, and second-year QB Spencer Rattler may not be able to find his deep threat so easily against more competent secondaries, but it was still an encouraging sign for Shaheed and the Saints' aerial attack. He'll look for another big play or two in Week 6 against the Patriots.
