It hasn't been the high-octane start fans envisioned when the Seattle Seahawks acquired Rashid Shaheed on Nov. 4. The deadline day trade sent expectations soaring. A lofty nickname, "The Legion of Zoom," floated around before the lightning-quick receiver even played a snap in Seattle.
So far, Shaheed's performance–and, more importantly, his utilization–has fallen short of the hype. He has just four catches and 37 receiving yards in four games for the Seahawks. Before the trade, Shaheed had at least four catches in every game this season on his former team, the New Orleans Saints.
Here are his Seahawks' game logs are as follows: Week 10 versus the Arizona Cardinals, one catch and three yards; Week 11 versus the Los Angeles Rams, two catches and 27 receiving yards; Week 12 versus the Tennessee Titans, zero catches and, obviously, zero yards; Week 13 versus the Minnesota Vikings, one catch for seven yards.
