Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Terry McLaurin

Thursday, November 27, 7:55 AM

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore was able to find the endzone twice in Week 12, totaling 64 yards on five receptions in the 31-28 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite his strong showing against Pittsburgh, Week 12 marked just his second game of the season with seven or more targets in a game. Whether it's due to the emergence of Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, and Colston Loveland or the strong workload given to the run game, Moore is a risky option for fantasy managers moving forward. The Eagles host the Bears this weekend, and their secondary has given up the 10th most yards to wide receivers in 2025. Despite the ideal matchup, Moore is a FLEX play at best in Week 13.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) has been cleared from the injury report and will play in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos on Sunday Night Football. McLaurin missed four games after initially injuring his quad in Week 3 against the Las Vegas Raiders, then reaggravated the injury in Week 8 versus the Kansas City Chiefs and hasn't played since. The Ohio State product was a full participant in Thursday's practice before getting a rest day on Friday. McLaurin looked great in the limited number of snaps he played against the Chiefs, catching three of his four targets for 54 yards and a touchdown. He'll provide a major lift to a Washington offense that has been decimated by injuries and will be without second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) for the third straight game. It's a tough matchup for McLaurin to return for, as the Broncos will be getting star cornerback Patrick Surtain II (pectoral) back on Sunday night. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR39 in PPR leagues for Week 13.
