Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Nyheim Hines

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore was unable to capitalize on his expanded opportunities in Week 14, totaling -4 yards on one reception against the Green Bay Packers. Despite Rome Odunze (foot) being out, Moore struggled and left fantasy managers as frustrated as they've been all season. The run-heavy approach the Bears have been using has been a factor, but his connection with Caleb Williams is simply not there. He faces the Cleveland Browns in Week 15, who have allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Even if Odunze is out for Week 15, Moore is hard to trust as a starting option from a fantasy perspective.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Nyheim Hines was elevated from the practice squad for the third time this season but made little impact in Thursday's 37-10 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Hines saw only seven snaps, four on offense and three on special teams, and finished with two carries for minus 2 yards. He was clearly behind Kimani Vidal and Jaret Patterson on the depth chart and has since returned to the practice squad. Now that Hines has reached the maximum number of elevations allowed from the practice squad, the Chargers must decide whether to sign him to the active roster to keep him available, as per NFL rules. With Hassan Haskins (hamstring) and Omarion Hampton (ankle) still sidelined, there's a possibility Hines gets signed. However, his limited usage on Thursday might suggest otherwise. Either way, he's off the fantasy radar heading into Week 9 against a struggling Tennessee Titans defense.
