DJ Moore News
Friday, October 9, 11:10 AM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) came out of the fieldhouse and joined his fellow receivers Friday but did not participate in drills, according to Sal Capaccio of WGR 550. It was a similar scene Thursday, when Moore was officially listed as a nonparticipant. The veteran injured his left shoulder against Detroit in Week 2 and aggravated it during last Sunday's loss to New England, leaving both games early. He managed six catches for 67 yards against the Chargers in between those injuries and has 12 receptions for 178 yards and a touchdown through four games. Buffalo doesn't face the Rams until Monday night, leaving Moore another opportunity to get some practice work in Saturday. His availability remains uncertain, and fantasy managers planning to start him should have another option available for Monday in case he can't go.

Tee Higgins News
Friday, October 9, 1:06 PM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins was listed on the injury report this week with a groin injury and is questionable to play this weekend. Higgins did not participate in practice Wednesday or Thursday before logging a full practice on Friday. Full participation on Friday is a good sign for his availability, but he is not guaranteed to play. If he does play, Higgins will have a juicy matchup on the road against the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins defense has been one of the most exploitable units this season and the Cincinnati offense can certainly take advantage of that. With fellow receiver Ja'Marr Chase listed as questionable with a concussion, Higgins could be in line for the WR1 role. The Bengals are heavy road favorites and quarterback Joe Burrow will likely pepper Higgins with targets if he's out there. Higgins should be viewed as a high-end WR2 with WR1 upside if he suits up. Fantasy managers should be excited for the matchup, but have contingency plans in case Higgins sits out.
