6. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 16: Rashid Shaheed, New Orleans Saints

Rostered: 2.1%

Shaheed is coming off a breakout game, in which he had three receptions for 95 yards and a touchdown. The Saints will be without Michael Thomas, Chris Olave, and Jarvis Landry on Saturday, so Shaheed will have the opportunity to serve as the Saints’ top wide receiver.

Shaheed is a great streaming option this week.

5. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 16: Treylon Burks, Tennessee Titans

Rostered: 44.4%

If he is on the field, Burks is a must-start fantasy wide receiver. The first-round pick broke out with a seven-reception, 111-yard game in Week 11. He built on that momentum with four receptions for 70 yards in Week 12.

In Week 13, he got off to a hot start with a 25-yard receiving touchdown in the first quarter. Unfortunately, he also suffered a concussion on that play. As a result, he missed the last two games.

Burks is listed as questionable for Saturday’s game. If he is active, he is a quality WR2.
