For the second straight day this week, Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (knee) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Moore's fantasy stock is at an all-time low heading into the playoffs and a Wild-Card matchup against the division-rival Green Bay Packers on Saturday night at Soldier Field. Not only could Moore take a questionable tag into the weekend if he doesn't practice in full on Thursday, but he's coming off back-to-back one-catch efforts in the final two games of the regular season with Rome Odunze (foot) out of action. The 28-year-old has become extremely hard to trust as a WR4/flex in fantasy lineups, and especially so this weekend with Odunze expected to return after missing the last five weeks. Don't expect Moore to show out the way he did the last time he faced Green Bay, when he caught five of seven targets for 97 yards and a touchdown in the overtime win.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (knee) had an underwhelming season in 2025, recording 50 receptions for 682 yards and six touchdowns on 85 targets across 17 games. With Bears wideout Rome Odunze (foot) missing the team's final five games of the regular season due to a foot injury, Moore seemingly had a chance to re-emerge as Chicago's WR1. However, Moore struggled down the stretch, recording just two receptions for 18 yards on seven targets over his final two outings. Heading into Chicago's Wild Card Weekend matchup against the Green Bay Packers, Moore was listed as a limited practice participant on Tuesday due to a knee issue. Additionally, Odunze was able to get back to practice in a limited capacity, which could signal his return for the first round of the playoffs. Between Moore's fading play and uncertain health, as well as Odunze's possible return, fantasy managers in playoff leagues may find Moore tough to trust entering the postseason.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (knee) was listed as limited in Tuesday's practice due to a knee injury, according to Chris Emma of 670 The Score. It's unclear how serious Moore's knee injury is, but it could help explain why he caught just two passes on seven targets for 18 yards in the final two games of the regular season against the 49ers and Lions, with fellow wideout Rome Odunze (foot) still sidelined by injury. The 28-year-old Moore did have five catches for a season-high 97 yards and a touchdown in the Week 16 victory over the division-rival Green Bay Packers, and he also scored twice the week prior against the Cleveland Browns. If Moore is active on Wild-Card weekend against Green Bay on Saturday night, he'll be a low-floor fantasy option at receiver, especially if Odunze makes his return to Chicago's receiving room.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore followed up back-to-back top-seven fantasy performances in Weeks 15 and 16 with a one catch, 25-yard outing in Week 17 that was good enough for WR97 in Half-PPR formats. All of this came after finishing Week 14 with negative yardage. Although he came into Week 17 with an illness that threatened to keep him sidelined, this has been the DJ Moore experience for most of the season, alternating brilliant performances with colossal letdowns. For fantasy managers still competing for a Week 18 championship, Moore is hard to trust, even against Detroit's bottom-three pass defense. Luther Burden III (quad) carries no injury designation into Sunday after being carted off the field at the end of Chicago's Sunday Night loss to the 49ers, and Olamide Zaccheaus (illness) has been a full practice participant after missing the same game with an illness of his own. Moore is RotoBaller's WR26 for the week, but he comes with considerable risk.

There is a possibility that the Chicago Bears will look to trade wide receiver DJ Moore this offseason, potentially to the Las Vegas Raiders in a package that would include All-Pro pass-rusher Maxx Crosby. The Raiders are heading into a full rebuild in 2026 and could use a receiver for their expected No. 1 overall pick of a quarterback. Meanwhile, the Bears need an elite pass-rusher. The 28-year-old Moore has not been a great fit in Chicago's offense in 2025 in head coach Ben Johnson's first season. After a 1,000-yard season in 2023 in his first year in the Windy City, Moore has regressed over the last two years and currently sits at 49 catches for 671 yards and six touchdowns in 16 games played. The emergence of rookie receiver Luther Burden III late this year certainly could make Moore expendable this offseason.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (illness) is officially active for Sunday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 17. He had been listed as questionable after the Bears added him to the injury report on Sunday morning. There had been some concern about his status, but in the end, he was able to shake the illness and feels healthy enough to play. Moore has impressed lately with nine catches, 166 yards, and three touchdowns over his last two games. He played a major role in last week's win over the Packers, highlighted by a big game-winning touchdown catch in overtime. This week, Moore and Luther Burden III will operate as some of Caleb Williams' top targets with Rome Odunze (foot) and Olamide Zaccheaus (illness) ruled out. The 28-year-old is a solid WR2 option in fantasy football.
Dec 28, 2025 7:11 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (illness) has been added to the injury report and is officially questionable to play against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football in Week 17. Moore was not on the injury report earlier this week, so it appears that he picked up the illness sometime over the last 36 hours. Bears-49ers kicks off at 8:20 p.m., creating a challenging situation for fantasy managers. If managers choose to keep Moore in their lineup, they should roster another option from the 49ers, Bears, Rams, or Falcons in case Moore gets ruled out prior to kickoff. If he plays, though, he has high upside. He enters this week as a fantasy WR2 with Rome Odunze (foot) ruled out and Olamide Zaccheaus (illness) listed as questionable.

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore stole the show in Week 16's thrilling victory over the Green Bay Packers. Moore hauled in five of seven targets for 97 yards and the game-winning 46-yard touchdown. With both Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden III (ankle) inactive last week, Moore played his highest snap count of the season and set season highs in yards and targets. In the last two weeks, Moore has totaled 166 yards and three touchdowns in games where Odunze was out. He faces a 49ers defense that has allowed the 14th-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. With their secondary banged up entering Week 17, Moore has another opportunity to perform as the WR1 in the Bears offense.
Dec 27, 2025 4:46 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore has been on a tear over the previous few weeks and is poised to retain an elevated role in the offense amid injuries to his teammates. Moore felt like an afterthought in Chicago's attack early in the campaign. Through the first nine games of the year, the University of Maryland alum had recorded just one touchdown and three double-digit fantasy performances. However, he's been more involved over the last month or so, particularly with fellow wideout Rome Odunze (foot) battling a nagging foot issue. While it's unclear if Odunze will miss a fourth straight outing, he's yet to practice in any capacity since Week 15. Furthermore, rookie Luther Burden III (ankle) could also be out again. If one or both are inactive, fantasy managers can rely on Moore as a solid WR2 with upside against a vulnerable San Francisco 49ers defense on Sunday Night Football.
Dec 25, 2025 12:00 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore hauled in five of seven targets for 97 yards and a touchdown, while adding 12 rushing yards in the 22-16 overtime victory over the Green Bay Packers. After being held without a catch in the first half, Moore erupted, reeling in the game-winning 46-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Caleb Williams. With Rome Odunze (foot) and rookie Luther Burden III (ankle) inactive for Saturday's showdown, Moore was the top receiver, leading the team in nearly every statistical category and playing a season-high 95% of the snaps. With no update on whether either receiver will be back by their Week 17 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, Moore could once again operate as the WR1 in this offense and be a must-start option if Odunze and Burden are ruled out once again.
Dec 21, 2025 11:53 AM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore is in a smash spot entering Week 16's matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Moore hauled in four of five targets for 69 yards and two touchdowns in last week's dominant victory over the Cleveland Browns. Now, the Bears will be without top receiver Rome Odunze (foot) and ascending rookie Luther Burden III (ankle), which opens up targets for Moore and the rest of the Bears' receiving corps. They face the Green Bay Packers in Week 16, who have allowed the 13th-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. It's been a rocky road for Moore this season, but with the injuries to Odunze and Burden, along with an ideal matchup, he is a locked-in WR2 in Week 16.
Dec 19, 2025 9:53 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore is coming off a 69-yard, two-touchdown performance against the Browns that was good enough to make him a top-five fantasy wide receiver for the third time in the last seven weeks. The Bears now head into a Week 16 divisional matchup with the Packers, and with the rest of their receiving corps at less than full health, Moore could be in line for another impactful fantasy outing. Neither Rome Odunze (foot) nor Luther Burden III (ankle) has been able to participate in the first two practices of the week, while Cole Kmet (ankle, knee) was limited both Monday and Tuesday. Moore had his worst outing of the season in Week 14 against this same Packers defense, finishing the game with negative receiving yardage, but he heads into the Saturday rematch as RotoBaller's WR 39 for the week and should rise higher if Odunze and Burden are unable to suit up.
Dec 17, 2025 9:06 PM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore was unable to capitalize on his expanded opportunities in Week 14, totaling -4 yards on one reception against the Green Bay Packers. Despite Rome Odunze (foot) being out, Moore struggled and left fantasy managers as frustrated as they've been all season. The run-heavy approach the Bears have been using has been a factor, but his connection with Caleb Williams is simply not there. He faces the Cleveland Browns in Week 15, who have allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Even if Odunze is out for Week 15, Moore is hard to trust as a starting option from a fantasy perspective.
Dec 13, 2025 11:11 AM EST
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore continues to be an inconsistent fantasy football option. He ranks as the overall WR37 in PPR leagues so far, failing to establish himself as a truly reliable fantasy receiver despite previous optimism that he would be the Bears' top receiver in 2025 and beyond. The 28-year-old had a 64-yard, two-touchdown performance a couple of weeks ago, but aside from that big game, he has been a significant disappointment. With that said, he does have a chance to bounce back on Sunday in Week 14 against the Green Bay Packers, who most recently surrendered 309 passing yards to Detroit. Moore could still capitalize on this matchup and, thus, should be started as an RB3/flex. RotoBaller's Week 14 fantasy rankings have Moore listed as the WR34.
Dec 7, 2025 7:24 AM EST
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.
Nov 27, 2025 7:55 AM EST
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.
Nov 15, 2025 12:42 PM EST
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.
Nov 14, 2025 3:30 PM EST
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.
