Seahawks trade for WR Rashid Shaheed

Pro Football Talk

Nov 04, 2025 · 1:41 PM EST

Seattle’s already strong passing game has just picked up another big-play threat.

The Saints are trading wide receiver Rashid Shaheed to the Seahawks, according to NFL Network.

Fantasy Impact:

Shaheed was a strong trade candidate by many before the deadline and he's now a deep threat for the Seahawks. This likely pushes Horton to the team's WR4 assuming Kupp is back healthy at some point. Horton was just coming off an impressive game against the Commanders with Kupp out. Meanwhile for the Saints, Olave remains at least for now and is the team's WR1, but behind him there are lots of questions as Cook and Vele seem to be next up. Johnson, the Saints TE, looks to be the second target overall in the passing game.

NFL Beat: Saints could deal a WR before deadline

Adam Schefter thinks the Saints could move one of their WRs, and specifically named Rashid Shaheed.

Related players: Chris Olave

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers, Bills and Broncos look to be in the market for a WR and have made calls to other teams, according to Schefter. Shaheed is on the last year of his deal and so Schefter sees him as a guy teams are more interested in.

Saints go with Tyler Shough at QB

The future is now in New Orleans, with the Saints making rookie QB Tyler Shough their starter.

Spencer Rattler now heads to the bench, while the second-rounder moves to the forefront in a decision coach Kellen Moore informed them of today.

Fantasy Impact:

The stats say Shough was worse than Rattler last week against the Bucs after taking over, but the Saints are making the switch. With the Saints not going anywhere, it makes sense for the team to see what they have with their second round pick from this past spring. Reports out of camp from spring and summer from some who follow the team said the competition wasn't really close, and Rattler was the better option. Now the question becomes how does this decision affect some of the other weapons on the team. It's probably at least a slight downgrade until we see otherwise.

Broncos trade WR Devaughn Vele for future draft compensation

Adam Schefter

And another trade! The Denver Broncos are sending WR Devaughn Vele to the New Orleans Saints for a 2026 4th-round pick and a 2027 7th-round pick, per sources.

Fantasy Impact:

That's a lot of related players, but the biggest impact is probably on rookie Pat Bryant, who has played well enough to make Vele expendable in Denver.

The Saints will presumably employ the 6'4" Vele as a rotational threat, which makes him a little more interesting in super deep leagues for a team that is projected to be playing from behind a ton.
