Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Isiah Pacheco

Thursday, October 16, 12:17 AM

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (hip, groin) did not participate in the Bears' walk-through on Wednesday, according to the team. The participation for players is an estimate since no practice was held, but Moore would not have practiced anyway. Moore. suffered the injury during Monday night's win over Washington and then had to stay in the hospital overnight in Washington, D.C. He was productive before leaving, catching three of five targets for 42 yards and adding 10 rushing yards on two carries. His status will be monitored throughout the week, with further updates to follow.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco will face off against the Detroit Lions in Week 6. Pacheco handled seven carries for 36 yards and caught three passes for 20 yards in their Week 5 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Pacheco once again split carries with Kareem Hunt, and the latter found the endzone twice last week. Rostering Pacheco has been a frustrating task for fantasy managers, even though he's averaged at least 5.0 yards per carry in three games this season. Despite his efficiency, Kansas City has still preferred Hunt in goal-line situations. It won't be easy to trust Pacheco again this week against the Lions, who are the highest-scoring team in the league. The Chiefs have the highest neutral pass rate in the league, and that trend should continue, given their game has a 52.5 O/U, the highest of the week. Pacheco is ranked RB41 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a desperation flex option despite his efficiency on limited touches.
