Who Should I Start? Chris Conley or Darnell Mooney

Sunday, December 1, 7:10 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Chris Conley (knee) will play on Sunday night in Buffalo. The wideout was limited in practice all week, resulting in a questionable designation. With Brandon Aiyuk (knee) sidelined, others had a chance to step up. However, Conley hasn't done anything of relevance this season, catching only one pass (seven targets) for four yards. Without question, he shouldn't be starting in any fantasy lineup. In fact, Conley shouldn't even be on fantasy rosters.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney was the team's leading receiver on Sunday with five receptions for 82 yards but was unable to find the end zone as Bijan Robinson punched in both of Atlanta's offensive touchdowns in the lopsided 34-7 win. Drake London also caught five passes but totaled just 59 yards on his receptions. He also left the game in the fourth quarter with a hamstring injury, although coach Raheem Morris stated after the game that London could have gone back in, however, with a comfortable lead there was no reason for him to reenter. Mooney is nearing his first 1000-yard season since 2021, and can likely still be trusted again next week with the chemistry he showed with Michael Penix Jr., but in the matchup with Washington he is probably a WR3 at best. Managers will want to monitor London's status throughout the week, and if the hamstring injury were to cause him to miss time, then Mooney could be in line for a few more targets.
