Chris Moore a Low-End Flex Option in Deep Leagues?

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.

Quintez Cephus Scores Revenge Touchdown

Sunday, August 24, 8:45 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Quintez Cephus finished the preseason on a high note, catching four of his seven targets for 51 yards and a touchdown against his former team, the Lions. Cephus' six-yard touchdown catch from Graham Mertz put the Texans ahead 16-7 just before halftime, and they went on to win 26-7. The Texans did not play starting quarterback C.J. Stroud or primary backup Davis Mills, but Cephus looked productive playing with rookie Graham Mertz. Cephus was a fifth-round pick of the Lions in 2020 and played three seasons in Detroit. He missed a season due to a suspension for violating the league's gambling policy and has since spent time with the Buffalo Bills, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers, and Texans. He doesn't look likely to end up on the Texans' final roster, but he probably showed enough to get a look from another NFL team or at least end up on a practice squad somewhere.
