Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore has been an afterthought in Ben Johnson's offense so far this season. Through six games, Moore has hauled in 22 of 31 targets for 258 yards and one touchdown, putting him on pace to finish as the WR50 in PPR formats. While he continues to play a heavy 88% snap share, his 16.8% target share ranks just 77th in the league, a far cry from his usual alpha role. With the Bears leaning heavily on the run game and Rome Odunze emerging as the top option through the air, Moore has been left searching for consistency. However, Week 8 offers a prime get-right opportunity against a Ravens defense that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Moore carries FLEX appeal in Week 8 and could finally deliver a spark to his otherwise quiet campaign.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. has been cleared from the injury report ahead of Monday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs. Samuel missed only one game due to the heel injury that he's been managing for a few weeks, and will be joined by fellow wide receiver Terry McLaurin, who returns from a four-game absence because of a quadriceps injury. Samuel has enjoyed an outstanding bounce-back season with Washington through six games, catching 34 of his 43 targets for 315 yards and three touchdowns, and has added eight rushes for 45 yards and another score on the ground. McLaurin's return could take away a few targets, but Samuel has operated as the focal point of the passing attack in his absence. He's shown more downfield ability this year and continues to be one of the best YAC threats in the league. RotoBaller ranks him as WR25 in PPR leagues for Week 8 against a Chiefs defense that has allowed the second-fewest PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers.
