Will Shipley Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Fri, Aug 22nd 2025, 12:27pm EDT

With Kenneth Gainwell out of the picture, Will Shipley is the clear handcuff for Saquon Barkley. Shipley's per carry metrics last year in a SMALL sample size (only 30 carries) weren't great. He had only a 7% missed tackle rate and 1.70 yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). He's a viable late-round handcuff option, but not someone I'm prioritizing in drafts in 2025, despite my fade of Saquon Barkley.
