New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed is one of the most unique talents in the NFL. Maybe he gets it from teammate Taysom Hill. In reality, he's just very gifted and has a bright future ahead of him.
Awards have proven that throughout this offseason for Shaheed. After being an All-Pro and Pro Bowl selection, he just added another honor to his collection.

Originally an underrated free agent, Shaheed has truly made the full climb through the league.
Now, he's arguably the best special teams returner in the world and a legitimate offensive weapon as well.
Shaheed was the only player in the NFL with 700+ yards from scrimmage as well as 300-plus return yards on both punts and kickoffs. Plus, he was third in yards per punt return attempt with 13.6. He also returned a punt for 76 yards and a touchdown against the Green Bay Packers this past season.
The young wideout has an extremely bright future ahead of him with plenty of upside on offense and special teams. Folks around the league are already starting to notice.
