Who Should I Start? Allen Lazard or Skyy Moore

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard has recorded just four catches for 24 yards on six targets across four games so far this season. Still, Lazard could have a chance to make his mark in New York now that star Jets wideout Garrett Wilson (knee) is facing a multi-week absence due to a knee injury. Lazard missed the team's Week 6 matchup against the Denver Broncos due to personal reasons, so his status for Week 7 is somewhat unclear. If he's able to return to the lineup in Week 7, Lazard could be the favorite to start at wide receiver for the Jets alongside fellow veteran Josh Reynolds in a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers. In the very deepest of fantasy leagues, Lazard could be a short-term desperation flex option while Wilson is sidelined.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Skyy Moore saw a spike in Week 3's matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Moore had seen just five offensive snaps through the first two games of the season, but saw his snap share shoot up to 52% in the 49ers' 16-15 win on Sunday. With Jauan Jennings (ankle/shoulder) absent from the game, Kendrick Bourne moved to the outside, opening the door for Moore to operate as the team's slot receiver. The jump in usage didn't equate to much production, however, and he finished the day with one reception for 10 yards. The increased role can't be expected to last. Now that Demarcus Robinson's three-game suspension has been served, Moore will be relegated to return duty in short order. So far in 2025, Moore has handled three kickoffs and eight punts for a combined 151 return yards.
