One outlet feels as though Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir will emerge to national prominence in 2024.
In the wake of the spring departures of Gabriel Davis and perennial Pro Bowler Stefon Diggs, the team opted to construct a diverse group that offers a wide range of skill sets as opposed to acquiring another bonafide primary target through which it can funnel its offense.
Shakir’s rapport with Allen improved down the stretch of his sophomore season as he became a more featured player in the offense, catching 20 passes for 363 yards over the final seven games of the campaign. He caught another 10 passes for 75 yards and two scores in the playoffs, his rise to prominence directly coinciding with quarterbacks coach Joe Brady’s ascension to interim offensive coordinator.
“After a rather quiet rookie season, Shakir had a strong performance in year two with 611 receiving yards and a couple of touchdowns,” Holder wrote. “He ended last year strong, logging 444 yards and a couple of 100-yard performances in the team's last nine games to build some momentum heading into 2024. Also, the Bills moved on from Stefon Diggs in the offseason, so there should be more targets to go around. It will also help that the 2022 fifth-round pick has familiarity with Josh Allen.

Shakir is well-positioned to have the best season of his young professional career in 2024, as he realistically could be Allen’s go-to wide receiver in the short-to-intermediate game. With Coleman figured to be a big-play and red-zone threat andThere are a lot of mouths to feed in Buffalo’s offense , but there’s little reason to believe Shakir won’t be one of the biggest benefactors of the team’s offseason retool.
