Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Jordan Addison

The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain writes that the Chicago Bears are getting creative with DJ Moore under new head coach Ben Johnson in training camp as they look to get his hands on the ball as much as possible. "We're exploring some things," Johnson said. "What I've seen on tape and what I've come to learn about DJ is he's a physical, he's a run-after-catch, just-get-me-the-ball type of guy. Whether that's in the backfield, whether that's screens, I think he had a nice 'go' route the other day, there's a number of things we're looking to do and explore." Moore has 57 career carries (14 in 2024) and has been seen taking some handoffs out of the backfield this summer. There will be competition for targets in an offense with plenty of weapons, but Moore is the clear WR1 in Chicago with Keenan Allen gone and should be targeted as a low-end WR2 with upside in fantasy.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will plead guilty to a lesser vehicular offense commonly referred to as a "wet reckless" a year after his initial DUI citation, according to ESPN's Kevin Seifert. As a result, Addison will pay a standard fine and complete two online courses, although we must still wait to see how the NFL reacts. The 23-year-old's probation is expected to be terminated early in six months. A 2025 suspension for Addison is still possible, although if he is suspended by commissioner Roger Goodell, we wouldn't expect it to be for more than two or three games at the most. The former first-rounder took a slight step back in Year 2 in 2024 with a 63-875-9 line in 15 starts, but he was still plenty productive behind All-Pro Justin Jefferson. With a suspension still looming, Addison's fantasy value is still a bit shaky as a WR3/flex.
