Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Darius Slayton

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore was able to find the endzone twice in Week 12, totaling 64 yards on five receptions in the 31-28 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite his strong showing against Pittsburgh, Week 12 marked just his second game of the season with seven or more targets in a game. Whether it's due to the emergence of Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, and Colston Loveland or the strong workload given to the run game, Moore is a risky option for fantasy managers moving forward. The Eagles host the Bears this weekend, and their secondary has given up the 10th most yards to wide receivers in 2025. Despite the ideal matchup, Moore is a FLEX play at best in Week 13.

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (hamstring) will operate as the team's No. 2 option alongside Wan'Dale Robinson after being removed from the injury report ahead of Week 12 against the Detroit Lions. Slayton returns from a one-game absence, and he'll be catching passes from his third different quarterback of the season as Jameis Winston fills in for Jaxson Dart (concussion). While Dart elevated Slayton's productivity, the receiver should have similar upside with Winston under center. The veteran quarterback is a gunslinger who is not afraid to air the ball out, racking up completions and yardage. Slayton had nine catches for 151 yards over his previous two games, and he should build on that momentum as a low-end WR3/flex against a Lions defense allowing the 11th-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025.
