Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Rome Odunze

Thursday, January 8, 2:41 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (knee) is good to go for Saturday night's Wild-Card game against the division-rival Green Bay Packers after being removed from the injury report on Thursday, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Moore finished second on the team with 682 receiving yards and was tied for the team lead with six touchdowns in 17 games during the regular season. The 28-year-old also had five catches for a season-high 97 yards and a touchdown in the big overtime win over the Packers in Week 16. In two games since then, though, Moore has a combined two catches for 18 yards. Moore can break big plays, but his floor is dangerously low, as evidenced by five games in 2025 with either one or zero catches. He profiles as a boom/bust WR2 on Wild-Card weekend in playoff leagues, especially with Rome Odunze (foot) returning after a five-game absence.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze (foot) is off the injury report and is set to return to action on Saturday night against the division-rival Green Bay Packers in the Wild-Card round of the postseason, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. It will be Odunze's first game action since Week 13 due to a stress fracture in his foot. Despite missing five straight games, the 23-year-old second-year pass-catcher finished third on the Bears with 661 receiving yards, and he was tied for the lead with six touchdown grabs. The former first-rounder scored five of his six TDs in the first four weeks of the season before hitting a wall. Odunze's drop in production may have had something to do with his foot injury, but regardless, he enters postseason play as a shaky WR4/flex option in fantasy leagues. In his absence for the last five weeks, rookie WR Luther Burden III and rookie tight end Colston Loveland have been the team's go-to receiving options.
