Rashid Shaheed logs full practice

In June, Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald expressed excitement about the potential of rookie receiver Rashid Shaheed as he prepared for his first full season with the team after a productive offseason and training camp. However, Shaheed's offensive production has been limited so far, with just six catches for 53 yards in three games.

At a recent press conference, Macdonald was questioned about Shaheed's performance. "I don’t know what exactly his numbers are," Macdonald responded, acknowledging that the ball has been finding Jaxon Smith-Njigba more frequently at the moment. Macdonald emphasized that Shaheed is doing a great job and that the team must stick to their process, make necessary adjustments, and trust that the ball will find its intended target.

Smith-Njigba has outperformed Shaheed with 27 catches for 405 yards and six touchdowns, while Cooper Kupp has contributed 8 catches for 101 yards and a touchdown. Despite Shaheed's limited production, the receiver also provides valuable contributions on special teams, with seven punt returns for 67 yards and seven kickoff returns for 190 yards.

However, Shaheed's contributions seem to fall short of the $17 million per year in compensation he is receiving.
