Seahawks Get Receiver Rashid Shaheed From Saints at Trade Deadline

On Nov. 4, the Seattle Seahawks acquired Rashid Shaheed from the New Orleans Saints, sending two 2026 fourth- and fifth-round picks to New Orleans.
Facing salary-cap pressure and limited draft capital, New Orleans Saints at 1-8 entered the deadline as sellers with Shaheed and Chris Olave eyed by contenders.
Known for his speed, Rashid Shaheed, 27, ranks eighth-fastest in a Week 5, 87-yard score and earned punt-returner All-Pro 2023 honors, easing his fit with Seattle offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak.
Sam Darnold gains a dynamic deep threat in Shaheed, whose field-stretching ability should force defensive adjustments benefiting Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Seahawks tight ends.
With the NFC West so tight, the move signals the Seattle Seahawks' win-now posture by holding onto Riq Woolen, as they sit at 6-2 and tied for first.
