Should I Start DJ Moore?

Thursday, October 8, 10:26 AM

When Buffalo Bills head coach Joe Brady was asked about potentially letting wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) rest his injured shoulder in Week 5 on Monday Night Football against the Los Angeles Rams, he said that the team owes it to Moore to let him try if he thinks he can play as the team monitors his shoulder, per Andy Young. "DJ's a competitor. You see the difference with us with DJ out on the football field," Brady said. Moore originally suffered an AC joint sprain in his shoulder in the Week 2 win over the Detroit Lions, but he has not missed any game time before aggravating the injury in Sunday's divisional loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday. The 29-year-old only caught one of two targets in that game for 11 yards. He also gave fantasy managers a donut in Week 2 when he injured his shoulder, which came after a 100-yard performance and a touchdown in his Bills' debut in Week 1. The good news is that Moore has an extra day to prepare his body before the Monday night contest in L.A. If he does not get the green light to play on Sunday, Keon Coleman will be firmly in play as a flex option after catching six passes for 116 yards and his first touchdown of the year in the loss to New England.
