Who Should I Start? Chris Moore or Ja'Corey Brooks

Saturday, November 15, 10:44 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Chris Moore has played more than expected this season, but hasn't drawn a target in each of the last three games. After earning at least one target in his first six games played this season, Moore's role in the offense has been decreasing despite the onslaught of injuries to Washington's wide receivers. The veteran ran just 19.2% of the team's routes in their Week 10 loss to the Lions, his lowest since all the way back in Week 1. With Treylon Burks (finger) ruled out for Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins, Moore could see his routes tick back up, but he hasn't shown enough production to be in any lineups.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Ja'Corey Brooks led the team in receiving in their first preseason game against the Patriots, catching all five targets for 59 yards. The 2025 undrafted free agent stepped in to play the majority of the second half and made the most of his opportunity. Brooks, a former five-star recruit out of high school, played at Alabama before transferring to Louisville for a season. He has good size at 6'2", 190 pounds, and posted over 1,000 yards and nine touchdowns in his final collegiate season. However, his poor athletic testing dragged him down in the draft process. With the Terry McLaurin contract situation and the state of the Commanders' receiver room, there is an opportunity for Brooks to make the roster as the sixth receiver. He'll need to continue to stack positive days at practice as well as produce when the lights come on for him to have a chance.
