Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Dylan Sampson

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.

The Cleveland Browns have listed rookie running back Dylan Sampson (calf) as questionable to play this Sunday against the Tennessee Titans in Week 14, according to Scott Petrak of Browns Zone. Sampson didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but a return to the practice field on Friday gives him a chance of suiting up this weekend. The 21-year-old injured his calf in Sunday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers and never returned. If the first-round RB isn't cleared to face the Titans this Sunday, Jerome Ford would see more playing time as the backup to rookie Quinshon Judkins in a favorable matchup. Still, with Judkins seeing the majority of backfield work for the Browns, Ford wouldn't be expected to have enough volume to make him a realistic flex play in 12-team fantasy leagues. Sampson has averaged just 2.7 yards per carry in his first 12 NFL games, running for 112 yards and no TDs on 42 rushing attempts.
