Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Khalil Shakir

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.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir could see an uptick in targets Monday night with tight end Dalton Kincaid (oblique) questionable after limited practice participation this week. Shakir tied his season-high with nine targets in Week 5 and now sits tied for the team lead with 29 on the year, turning them into 235 receiving yards through five games. With the Bills set to face the NFL's top-ranked pass defense in Atlanta, Shakir will need to create separation against cornerbacks Mike Hughes and Dee Alford to stay productive. If Kincaid is ruled out, Shakir should serve as a reliable safety valve for Josh Allen and could offer sneaky PPR value as a volume-based WR3 or flex play in Week 6.
