Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Tee Higgins

Saturday, October 25, 11:40 AM

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore has been an afterthought in Ben Johnson's offense so far this season. Through six games, Moore has hauled in 22 of 31 targets for 258 yards and one touchdown, putting him on pace to finish as the WR50 in PPR formats. While he continues to play a heavy 88% snap share, his 16.8% target share ranks just 77th in the league, a far cry from his usual alpha role. With the Bears leaning heavily on the run game and Rome Odunze emerging as the top option through the air, Moore has been left searching for consistency. However, Week 8 offers a prime get-right opportunity against a Ravens defense that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Moore carries FLEX appeal in Week 8 and could finally deliver a spark to his otherwise quiet campaign.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is coming off his best performance of the 2025 campaign, amassing six catches (10 targets) for 96 yards and a touchdown in the Thursday night win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. While Ja'Marr Chase played better, Higgins still got things done for fantasy managers. With the Bengals one victory away from a .500 record, the club will take on the winless Jets in Week 8. New York's injury report is loaded heading into the contest. However, regarding the defensive side of the ball, Sauce Gardner (concussion) has already been ruled out. Of course, this is a tough blow for the Jets. Brandon Stephens will try to do most of the heavy lifting in the secondary. Unfortunately, that may not be enough, so it appears Higgins has a strong chance of having another potent fantasy outing on Sunday, making him a starting option in all formats.
