Who Should I Start? Cooper Kupp or DJ Moore

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp is not entering a friendly matchup for his fantasy football props this week. Kupp has produced when the Seahawks have needed his services. However, Seattle's defense should be able to handle the Texans' offense, leading to low volume in the Seahawks' passing game. Kupp has only cleared five targets and four receptions twice in six games this season. On both of those occasions, Seattle was playing significantly from behind at one point in the game, and the passing game was necessary to even the score. Otherwise, the Seahawks have attempted to heavily rely on the running game in 2025. Kupp is likely going to be a flex option in the right matchups this year. However, this does not project to be one of them.

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (groin) is off the injury report and set to play in Week 7 against the New Orleans Saints. Moore was hospitalized following the team's Week 6 win over Washington due to a groin injury, but he practiced in full this week and is ready to go. It's been a slow start to the 2025 season for Moore, who has totaled 240 yards and one touchdown on 27 total attempts through five games. With Rome Odunze emerging as the team's WR1, Moore has struggled to find consistency. However, he gets a chance to rebound against a Saints defense that has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. After New Orleans was torched by Drake Maye and the Patriots in Week 6, there's real upside for the Bears' passing attack this week. Moore profiles as a solid WR3 with bounce-back potential in Week 7.
