If Moore is active, Khalil Shakir isn't someone I want to play in most redraft formats. But if he's sidelined, Shakir becomes a viable FLEX play and value wide receiver in DFS contests... Los Angeles has deployed two-high coverage almost 48% of the time this season.

Viable FLEX if Moore sits; exploits Chargers' two-high coverage scheme

If DJ Moore is ruled out with his shoulder injury, Shakir becomes a viable FLEX play and value WR in DFS contests. Los Angeles deploys two-high coverage 48% of the time (one of the higher rates in the league), and Shakir's short-to-intermediate usage profile fits well against this scheme. Last season, Shakir averaged 2.62 yards per route run against two-high coverage versus 1.28 YPRR against single-high, and was targeted on 23.2% of his routes against zone coverage.
