Who Should I Start? Cooper Kupp or Elijah Moore

Friday, December 5, 11:03 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp remains a lower-tier option in fantasy in Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons are a middle-tier defense against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. They have been very inconsistent, shutting down some teams while allowing others to have huge days. Whichever version of the Falcons' defense shows up on Sunday will not matter for Kupp. He is not a large enough part of the Seahawks' offense to merit fantasy consideration. Kupp has not caught more than three passes in a game since Week 5. That simply will not cut it for fantasy. The Seahawks value Kupp for his leadership and ability to make a big catch at the right moment. However, with wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba running wild on the outside, the Seahawks do not need Kupp to be anything close to an alpha. If you are looking for a flex play in Week 14, you should look elsewhere.

The Denver Broncos are signing veteran wide receiver Elijah Moore to their practice squad, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Moore was released by the Buffalo Bills in late November. Across nine games with Buffalo this season, the 25-year-old recorded nine catches for 112 yards on 17 targets. Moore posted consecutive 100-plus target seasons in 2023 and 2024 with the Cleveland Browns, but he was never able to gain much traction with the Bills. He'll now get his next opportunity with the Broncos, but Denver's crowded wide receiver room may make it difficult for Moore to make an impact. Broncos wideouts Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant, and Marvin Mims Jr. all played at least 33% of the team's offensive snaps in the team's Week 13 win over the Washington Commanders. Unless there's an injury in Denver, Moore should likely remain off the radar of fantasy managers.
