The Seattle Seahawks are acquiring speedy wide receiver Rashid Shaheed from the New Orleans Saints, multiple outlets reported Tuesday.

Per ESPN, the Saints are receiving fourth- and fifth-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft in exchange for Shaheed.

Shaheed will join a Seattle passing attack that features third-year wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigma, who leads the NFL in receiving yards (948) and has 58 catches with four touchdowns.

Shaheed, undrafted in 2022 out of Weber State, will have a reunion with Klint Kubiak. Kubiak was the Saints' offensive coordinator in 2024 before assuming the same post with Seattle.

Shaheed, 27, has recorded 44 catches for 499 yards and two touchdowns in nine games this season. Those totals are second only to Chris Olave with New Orleans.

Shaheed has 138 receptions for 2,055 yards with 12 touchdowns in 42 career games (28 starts) with the Saints.
