2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Bills took Shorter in the fifth round just last year, but this offseason they scooped up Keon Coleman in the second round of the 2024 draft and were also busy in the free agent market. The Florida product is thus looking at a depth chart that includes several newcomers who are projected to work ahead of him. As a rookie, the 6-4, 223-pounder didn't see any regular-season action after landing on IR with a hamstring injury. Now that he's presumably healthy, Shorter will look to parlay his size and speed into a role in Buffalo's revamped wideout corps. Read Past Outlooks
Clear to suit up Week 15
Shorter (back) doesn't have an injury designation for Monday's matchup against Atlanta, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Shorter missed last Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, but he'll be able to return Monday after logging an LP/LP/FP progression during practice this week. The 24-year-old tight end has played primarily on special teams this year and hasn't seen a passing target on 23 offensive snaps over six contests.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
At 6-4, 223 pounds, Shorter brings a welcome element of size and length to the Buffalo wide receiver room. Stefon Diggs is the team's number one option and one of the very best in the league. Gabe Davis is a solid number two wideout, but after the clear-cut top duo the group thins out pretty fast, meaning that there could be an opportunity for Shorter to contribute as a rookie. With that in mind, the fifth-rounder will be competing for complementary snaps and targets with Deonte Harty, Khalil Shakir and Trent Sherfield.
