DJ Moore's Shoulder Injury Leaves Week 5 Status Uncertain

Saturday, October 10, 11:53 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) is officially questionable for Monday night's game against the Rams. Moore missed practice Thursday and Friday before returning Saturday in a red non-contact jersey, and head coach Joe Brady said the team will make a decision closer to kickoff. Moore originally injured the shoulder against Detroit in Week 2 before aggravating it last Sunday against New England, when he caught one pass for 11 yards before leaving. He's now exited two games early with the same injury, making his workload a concern even if he's cleared to play. Joshua Palmer (shoulder) has also been ruled out, leaving Buffalo short on experienced receivers. Moore has 12 receptions for 178 yards and a touchdown through four games and sits at WR42 in RotoBaller's Week 5 rankings. Fantasy managers should have another Monday night option available rather than assuming Moore will play his usual snaps.

Deebo Samuel Sr. is Ruled Out with Hamstring Injury

Sunday, October 11, 3:00 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks, according to John Dickinson. Samuel looked to be in bad shape when he gingerly limped across the field during the third quarter. He was quickly ruled out for the rest of this game, and we'll see if he's able to suit up against the Washington Commanders next week. He'll finish his day, hauling in two receptions for 21 yards, while rushing the ball twice for an additional four yards on the ground. Mike Evans, Jacob Cowing, and George Kittle will be the primary pass-catchers for the rest of this game.
