Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore was able to find the endzone twice in Week 12, totaling 64 yards on five receptions in the 31-28 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite his strong showing against Pittsburgh, Week 12 marked just his second game of the season with seven or more targets in a game. Whether it's due to the emergence of Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, and Colston Loveland or the strong workload given to the run game, Moore is a risky option for fantasy managers moving forward. The Eagles host the Bears this weekend, and their secondary has given up the 10th most yards to wide receivers in 2025. Despite the ideal matchup, Moore is a FLEX play at best in Week 13.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore caught five of his seven targets for 64 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. After two very underwhelming performances, Moore bounced back by tying his season-high in catches while scoring his second and third touchdowns of the season. Neither Moore nor teammate Rome Odunze has been consistent this season, but the latter has typically been more productive, so Sunday's performance certainly bucked a trend within the Bears' offense. The veteran receiver isn't guaranteed to have fantasy relevance every week going forward, but Week 12 showed that he's still capable of producing at an elite level. Moore is back in the high-end WR3 tier for Week 13 against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Nov 23, 2025 7:14 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore is officially off the fantasy radar ahead of Week 12's matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. After being drafted as a top-25 receiver in fantasy drafts this season, Moore has hauled in 31 of 51 targets for 421 yards and one touchdown in 10 games. Whether his connection with quarterback Caleb Williams is not there or his current role in the scheme, Moore's struggles have been evident this season. Moore faces a Steelers defense in Week 12, which has allowed the most PPR fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season. However, with his current struggles, Moore should not be considered a starting option in fantasy matchups for Week 12.
Nov 22, 2025 9:48 AM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore is off the injury report heading into Week 11, but is still struggling to find a role in this offense. In 2025, Moore is averaging his fewest catches, yards, and touchdowns in his entire NFL career, and currently ranks as the WR46 on a per-game basis. His struggles were well demonstrated in Week 10, when Moore was held without a catch against the New York Giants. The veteran receiver will look to bounce back against the Minnesota Vikings, who have allowed the eighth fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season. While the Bears could look to get Moore involved early in the game, he is still a hard player to trust starting in fantasy matchups this week.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) will not carry an injury designation and will play in his team's Week 11 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, according to Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune. Moore has been limited in practice this week due to the injury, but it appears it will not keep him from suiting up in a crucial divisional contest. Moore has not missed a game since the 2020 season. The 30-year-old has hauled in 30 catches for 403 yards and a touchdown on 48 targets across nine games this season. However, he's coming off a four-target, zero-catch game in Week 10 against the New York Giants. It's possible that the shoulder injury could keep Moore from playing his usual allotment of snaps and could open up some additional opportunities for Bears rookie wideout Luther Burden III. Moore profiles as a low-end WR3/high-end WR4 for fantasy managers in Week 11 against Minnesota.

After missing practice on Wednesday, Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) was upgraded to a limited participant on Thursday, according to ESPN's Courtney Cronin. Moore hurt his shoulder in the second half of last week's win over the New York Giants, but he was able to return and should be fine to play in Week 11 on the road against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings this Sunday. Although Moore has been the team's second leading receiver through 10 weeks behind second-year wideout Rome Odunze, he's been pretty unreliable for fantasy purposes and has only one receiving touchdown on the year. Through nine games, Moore has 30 catches on 48 targets for 403 yards and one TD through the air. He also has a TD on the ground and has thrown a TD pass. The 28-year-old has a matchup to exploit this weekend in New York, but he's been a low-volume, low-ceiling WR4/flex in fantasy.
Nov 13, 2025 3:38 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (shoulder) did not participate in Wednesday's practice session. Moore left the game early on Sunday due to the injury, but was able to return later. The 28-year-old was coming off his best game of the season in Week 9 against the Bengals, catching four of six targets for 72 yards with a 17-yard rushing touchdown and throwing a two-yard touchdown, but did not record a catch on four targets in Chicago's Week 10 win over the Giants. It's just the second game of Moore's career in which he failed to record a reception when drawing at least one target. Moore has been on the injury report for the past few weeks, managing groin and hip injuries, and has typically sat out of practice to open the week. His status will continue to be monitored throughout the week.
Nov 12, 2025 4:14 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore is coming off his two most productive receiving games of the season, averaging 4 catches for 72.5 yards over the past two weeks and even adding both a rushing and passing touchdown in last week's 47-42 win over Cincinnati. Ben Johnson has been moving Moore all over the formation, using him as a runner and in the quick passing game to maximize his impact. He gets a favorable matchup in Week 10 against a Giants defense that allows the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers. With 25+ mph winds expected, Moore's short-area usage should help keep him involved. He profiles as a reliable WR3 this week.
Nov 8, 2025 11:14 AM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (groin, hip) upgraded to a full practice on Friday and has been cleared to play this Sunday against the visiting New York Giants in Week 10. Moore was held out of practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday before being a full-go in the final practice of the week. The 28-year-old has battled injuries in recent weeks, but he hasn't missed any games and will be full speed ahead this weekend in a good matchup against the G-Men. Moore has mostly taken a back seat to second-year wideout Rome Odunze in 2025, but that wasn't the case in the team's 47-point explosion in the Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. He had four catches for 72 yards, a 17-yard rushing touchdown, and even threw a touchdown pass on a track play, while Odunze didn't have a single catch. Moore has only two touchdowns on the year, but he has topped 70 receiving yards for the first time all year in two straight games. Fantasy managers will be hoping that trend continues as a low-end WR2/high-end WR3/flex in Week 10.
Nov 7, 2025 7:29 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (hip, groin) practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday after being held out of practice on Wednesday, per The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain. Chicago has been careful with Moore in early-week practices as he nurses hip and groin ailments, but he looks to be on track to play in Week 10 against the New York Giants. The 28-year-old has recorded at least 72 receiving yards in two straight games after failing to reach that mark in any of his first six contests. Overall, Moore has recorded 30 catches for 403 yards and a touchdown on 44 targets across eight games. Assuming he's cleared to play, Moore profiles as a low-end fantasy WR2 in a favorable matchup against the Giants in Week 10.
Nov 6, 2025 4:15 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (hip, groin) did not participate in Wednesday's practice session. The 28-year-old has missed multiple practices over the past few weeks while he manages a few lingering injuries, but it hasn't held him back on gamedays. Chicago is dealing with injuries to their top two wide receivers, with second-year wideout Rome Odunze (ankle, heel) also missing Wednesday's practice. Moore had his best game of the season in Week 9 at Cincinnati, catching four of six targets for 72 yards, while adding one carry for a 17-yard touchdown, in addition to throwing a two-yard touchdown to quarterback Caleb Williams. His status will be updated as the week goes along.
Nov 5, 2025 4:19 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore caught four of his six targets for 72 receiving yards during Sunday's Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. He also had a two-yard passing touchdown and a 17-yard rushing touchdown. We've heard for several months that Moore was going to have some unique ways of getting involved in new head coach Ben Johnson's system, but perhaps nobody expected the wide receiver to run and throw for a touchdown in the same game. The 28-year-old had his best fantasy performance (PPR) since Week 12 last season. He remains a low-end WR2 heading into Week 10 against the 2-7 New York Giants.
Nov 2, 2025 8:48 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore is coming off his best game of the season in Week 8 against the Ravens, catching four of his seven targets for a season high 73 yards. It's been an otherwise down year for the 28-year-old, failing to exceed 70 yards in every other game and scoring only one touchdown. His target share has dipped to just 17.3% in Ben Johnson's offense after being above 26% in both of his first two seasons in Chicago. Moore will have a chance to get back on track in Week 9 against a Bengals defense that hasn't slowed down any opponent this season and is tied for the highest net yards per pass attempt allowed in the league. Moore offers flex appeal in Week 9 in a favorable matchup, ranking as RotoBaller's WR31 in PPR formats.
Nov 1, 2025 9:43 AM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (hip, groin) has been cleared from the injury report ahead of their Week 9 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Moore was listed as a full participant in practice on Friday after missing Wednesday and being limited on Thursday. The 28-year-old has had a disappointing season through seven games, but is coming off his best game of the season in Chicago's Week 8 loss to the Ravens, catching four of seven targets for a season high 73 yards. Moore has taken a backseat to second-year wideout Rome Odunze as the go-to target for quarterback Caleb Williams, but could break through in Week 9 against a leaky Bengals defense.
Oct 31, 2025 6:20 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receivers Rome Odunze (heel) and DJ Moore (groin, hip) were both listed as limited participants in practice on Thursday after they both missed Wednesday's session. Chicago's offense is pretty banged up coming off their Week 8 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, with rookie receiver Luther Burden III (concussion) yet to practice this week and looking unlikely to suit up on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. Odunze and Moore should be able to suit up this weekend, but fantasy managers will want to monitor their statuses through Friday. Both pass-catchers could be in line for big days this weekend against a porous Bengals pass defense, especially if Burden is unable to play. Odunze has been quarterback Caleb Williams' primary target through the air this year, while Moore hasn't been a great fit in head coach Ben Johnson's offense.
Oct 30, 2025 3:37 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (hip, groin) was absent during Wednesday's practice session. Unsurprisingly, Moore sat out practice to begin the week while he deals with a few nagging injuries. This seems more like a rest day than anything else for the veteran wideout. The Bears are banged up right now with Rome Odunze (heel), Luther Burden III (concussion), and Olamide Zaccheaus (knee) all missing Wednesday's practice as well. These seem like minor issues for Moore, so he figures to be ready for the Week 9 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. He could have an expanded role if some of his fellow wideouts are unable to play.
Oct 29, 2025 8:59 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore has been an afterthought in Ben Johnson's offense so far this season. Through six games, Moore has hauled in 22 of 31 targets for 258 yards and one touchdown, putting him on pace to finish as the WR50 in PPR formats. While he continues to play a heavy 88% snap share, his 16.8% target share ranks just 77th in the league, a far cry from his usual alpha role. With the Bears leaning heavily on the run game and Rome Odunze emerging as the top option through the air, Moore has been left searching for consistency. However, Week 8 offers a prime get-right opportunity against a Ravens defense that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Moore carries FLEX appeal in Week 8 and could finally deliver a spark to his otherwise quiet campaign.
Oct 25, 2025 11:40 AM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (hip) was able to return to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday after being held out of practice on Wednesday due to a hip injury. Moore suffered the injury in Week 6 and was able to play through it in Week 7, so he could be on track to suit up again in Week 8 against the Baltimore Ravens. The 28-year-old has recorded 22 catches for 258 yards and a touchdown on 31 targets across six games so far this season. Moore appears to have fallen behind Bears wideout Rome Odunze in the team's pecking order for targets, and rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III may eventually threaten him as well. Assuming Moore is able to play on Sunday against Baltimore, he profiles as a solid WR3/flex option for fantasy managers.
Oct 23, 2025 4:42 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (hip) did not participate in practice on Wednesday, according to the team. Moore cleared the injury report ahead of Chicago's Week 7 game against the Saints after being hospitalized following the Week 6 win at Washington, but he enters this week in a similar situation. The 28-year-old has gotten off to a slow start this season, surpassing 50 receiving yards in only one game, which came in Week 1. The team has trended more run-heavy out of the bye week, and Moore has earned some rushing work, with nine rushes for 34 yards for the season, but he's fallen behind second-year WR Rome Odunze as the team's top target in the passing game. Moore's injury status should become clearer as the week goes along.
Oct 22, 2025 4:59 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (groin) is off the injury report and set to play in Week 7 against the New Orleans Saints. Moore was hospitalized following the team's Week 6 win over Washington due to a groin injury, but he practiced in full this week and is ready to go. It's been a slow start to the 2025 season for Moore, who has totaled 240 yards and one touchdown on 27 total attempts through five games. With Rome Odunze emerging as the team's WR1, Moore has struggled to find consistency. However, he gets a chance to rebound against a Saints defense that has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. After New Orleans was torched by Drake Maye and the Patriots in Week 6, there's real upside for the Bears' passing attack this week. Moore profiles as a solid WR3 with bounce-back potential in Week 7.
