Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a contract with the Raiders in September of 2025.
Joins Vegas' 53-man roster
Shorter was signed to the Raiders' active roster from the practice squad Friday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Shorter played wide receiver in college at Florida but attempted to convert to tight end in the NFL. The 2024 fifth-round pick of the Bills played in 10 regular-season games with Buffalo last season but saw action almost exclusively on special teams. Now back at wide receiver, the 6-foot-5 Shorter will provide depth for the Raiders following Thursday's announcement from Amari Cooper that the veteran wideout is retiring.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
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.
