Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Michael Pittman Jr.

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore is off to a sluggish start in 2025. Since the arrival of quarterback Caleb Williams, Moore has averaged just 56 yards per game with six touchdowns across 19 games. The chemistry between the two has yet to click, and Moore's role has clearly diminished with second-year receiver Rome Odunze emerging as the Bears' WR1. That said, Week 3 offers a get-right opportunity. The Dallas Cowboys allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2024 and just gave up a monster performance to Malik Nabers (167 yards, two TDs) in Week 2. While Moore's ceiling is capped by Odunze's rise, the matchup keeps him firmly in play as a high-end WR3 with upside this week.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. had a solid performance in Week 3, catching all six of his targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 41-20 win over the Tennessee Titans. Pittman Jr. led the team in catches, yards, and targets, even on a day when running back Jonathan Taylor stole the spotlight with three touchdowns. The veteran wide receiver has been a consistent target for quarterback Daniel Jones, accumulating nearly 200 yards and two touchdowns through three games this season. If he remains a red-zone target, he should be a reliable WR3 with WR2 upside moving forward.
