D.J. Moore Listed as DNP on Wednesday

Wednesday, October 22, 4:59 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (hip) did not participate in practice on Wednesday, according to the team. Moore cleared the injury report ahead of Chicago's Week 7 game against the Saints after being hospitalized following the Week 6 win at Washington, but he enters this week in a similar situation. The 28-year-old has gotten off to a slow start this season, surpassing 50 receiving yards in only one game, which came in Week 1. The team has trended more run-heavy out of the bye week, and Moore has earned some rushing work, with nine rushes for 34 yards for the season, but he's fallen behind second-year WR Rome Odunze as the team's top target in the passing game. Moore's injury status should become clearer as the week goes along.

Garrett Wilson Picks Up Another DNP, Could be Looking at Another Missed Game

Wednesday, October 22, 7:55 PM

Although New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn called wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) day-to-day, he was unable to practice on Wednesday, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Wilson has not practiced since hyperextending his knee in the Week 6 loss to the Denver Broncos in London, and he did not take the field in last week's loss to the Carolina Panthers. The 25-year-old is trending towards missing a second straight game in Week 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals unless he can return to practice in the next two days. If he does return, it looks like he could be taking passes from veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor, too. As of right now, fantasy managers should keep Wilson on their benches. The team has its bye coming in Week 9, so it would make sense for the Jets to hold him out another week and hope he can return in Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns.
