Wed Sep 25 09:27:10 UTC 2024: ## Bills Receiver Khalil Shakir on Track to Break NFL Record
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir is making a strong case for himself as Josh Allen’s top target, and he’s doing it in a historic way.
On Monday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Shakir hauled in all six passes thrown his way, extending his remarkable streak of consecutive catches to 27. This ties him with Michael Thomas for the most consecutive targets caught by any receiver since 1991, when targets started being tracked. If Shakir catches the next pass thrown his way, he will break the record outright.
Shakir’s impressive performance has earned him praise from his quarterback, Josh Allen, who lauded the receiver’s dedication and ability to consistently be in the right place at the right time. “He’s a freaking football player,” Allen said. “He loves the game. He does things the right way.”
Shakir is currently leading the Bills in receptions and yards, solidifying his position as a key piece of the Buffalo offense. His record-breaking streak and consistent play are a testament to his hard work and talent, and it looks like he’s only just getting started.
