D.J. Moore Leaves Preseason Opener With Lower-Leg Concern

Saturday, August 15, 9:50 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver D.J. Moore (lower leg) left Saturday's preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers after his third catch of the game. According to Matt Parrino, Moore grabbed at his ankle after picking up a first down, then came out and spoke with trainers before putting his helmet away. It was later reported that Moore was moving around well on the sideline while the medical staff looked at his lower leg. That is encouraging, but Buffalo has not announced a diagnosis or said whether Moore will miss any practice time. Most of the Bills' starting offense was coming out around the same point, so his day may have been finished regardless. Moore joined Buffalo in an offseason trade after catching 50 passes for 682 yards and six touchdowns for Chicago last season. He has quickly become a major part of the Bills' offense, making his status worth watching once the team provides an update.

Darius Slayton Listed as Starting Wide Receiver in Giants Unofficial Depth Chart

Wednesday, August 12, 7:59 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton was listed as the starting wide receiver on the team's unofficial depth chart. Slayton was listed alongside star wideout Malik Nabers as the only two wideouts named starters, with Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin III, Odell Beckham Jr., and Malachi Fields listed behind them. In 2025, Slayton was forced to step up after Nabers' knee injury and, despite costly drops, did quite well, averaging about 40 receiving yards per game. While Mooney, Beckham, and Austin have all worked with the first-team offense in recent practice, Slayton's current contract will likely force the team to hold onto him in 2026. The offense under head coach John Harbaugh will use more heavy personnel this season, but any wideout besides Nabers is unlikely to produce fantasy-relevant numbers.
