Jordan Addison vs Khalil Shakir: Who Should You Start?
This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Jordan Addison finished the 2025 season at 8.1 PPG over 14 games with the Minnesota Vikings, while Khalil Shakir clocked in at 8.1 across 16 appearances for the Buffalo Bills. A 0.0-point gap means any given week could go either way.
With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Jordan Addison turned 79 targets into 610 yards and 3 touchdowns, while Khalil Shakir converted 95 looks into 719 yards and 4 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
One scheduling note: Jordan Addison is off Week 6 and Khalil Shakir Week 12. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
