DJ Moore Aggravates Shoulder Injury in Week 4

Sunday, October 4, 4:46 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. Moore was taken to the ground in the second quarter and aggravated his shoulder injury, per Adam Schefter. Moore was unable to return to this game, but his injury isn't viewed as a long-term issue. He finished his day by hauling in one of his two targets for 11 yards in the loss. Fantasy managers will need to check on his status throughout the week to see if he'll be available to play against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5. If not, Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Joshua Palmer will be asked to take on expanded roles.

Darius Slayton Remains a Healthy Scratch for Week 4

Sunday, October 4, 4:18 AM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Darius Slayton (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's Week 4 contest against the Washington Commanders in London. It seemed like Slayton was in line to make his Colts debut after Keenan Allen (groin) was ruled out, but that's not the case. With Slayton, Allen, and Alec Pierce (heel, IR) on the sideline, the Colts will likely give more offensive snaps to Laquon Treadwell and Ashton Dulin. Both receivers will push for more targets in their role behind No. 1 receiver Josh Downs. Allen's absence creates an opportunity for Treadwell or Dulin to step in as the next man up, but we're not quite sure this offense can support multiple fantasy-relevant receivers every week. Downs remains the only Indianapolis wideout that should be started for now.
