Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Terry McLaurin

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 has been a disappointment for fantasy managers in 2025 while playing in just five games due to a nagging quad injury. The 30-year-old wideout aggravated his quad injury back in Week 8 and finally made his return in Sunday night's overtime loss to the Denver Broncos. Despite a tough matchup with last year's Defensive Player of the Year, cornerback Patrick Surtain, McLaurin had his best game of the season, catching seven of his 14 targets for 96 yards and a touchdown. He did it while playing just over half of the offensive snaps. It also came with backup quarterback Marcus Mariota running the offense. Three of his seven grabs went for over 15 yards, signaling that Scary Terry might be back when it matters the most in fantasy. McLaurin heads into another tough matchup on the road against the Vikings in Week 14 -- they've allowed the second-fewest half-PPR points to WRs this year -- but he has WR2 upside as Washington's clear WR1.
