Who Should I Start? Chris Moore or Mason Kinsey

Sunday, October 5, 9:44 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Chris Moore could generate some appeal as a low-end flex in deeper leagues ahead of Week 5 against the Los Angeles Chargers. With neither Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) nor Noah Brown (groin) playing on Sunday, Moore should start at wide receiver alongside Deebo Samuel Sr. Purely based on expected snap share and volume, Moore could sneak onto the fantasy radar. Of course, he's not a lock to produce, as we saw last week when he played 70 percent of the snaps and saw three targets but didn't catch any of them. He'll also face plenty of competition for targets from Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane. On a positive note, Washington gets a quarterback upgrade this week, as Jayden Daniels (knee) is healthy and will reclaim his starting job from Marcus Mariota. Fantasy managers dealing with extreme wide receiver problems due to injuries or bye weeks can consider starting Moore against the Chargers, but they should temper their expectations since Los Angeles has allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Mason Kinsey caught all four of his targets for 37 yards in the 24-16 preseason win over the Minnesota Vikings. Kinsey has floated between the team's active roster and practice squad since 2021 and will likely be cut or signed to the practice squad this year. The Berry College product has stuck around the organization, but there's a minuscule chance he's on the fantasy radar at any point during the 2023 season.
