Who Should I Start? Curtis Samuel or DJ Moore

Friday, November 28, 12:20 PM

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Curtis Samuel (elbow, knee) will not play on Sunday in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to Maddy Glab of BuffaloBills.com. Samuel will miss a second straight game, and it's unclear if the 29-year-old will be able to return for a Week 14 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. Samuel has not been on the fantasy radar at all in 2025, as he's caught only seven passes on nine targets for 81 yards and one touchdown on the year. He was unable to take advantage of second-year wideout Keon Coleman being benched for the last two games for disciplinary reasons. Samuel was off the fantasy radar in most leagues last year as well in Buffalo, as he had a weak 31-253-1 line in 14 regular-season games.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore continues to be an inconsistent fantasy football option. He ranks as the overall WR37 in PPR leagues so far, failing to establish himself as a truly reliable fantasy receiver despite previous optimism that he would be the Bears' top receiver in 2025 and beyond. The 28-year-old had a 64-yard, two-touchdown performance a couple of weeks ago, but aside from that big game, he has been a significant disappointment. With that said, he does have a chance to bounce back on Sunday in Week 14 against the Green Bay Packers, who most recently surrendered 309 passing yards to Detroit. Moore could still capitalize on this matchup and, thus, should be started as an RB3/flex. RotoBaller's Week 14 fantasy rankings have Moore listed as the WR34.
