Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Tetairoa McMillan

Thursday, November 13, 3:38 PM

After missing practice on Wednesday, Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) was upgraded to a limited participant on Thursday, according to ESPN's Courtney Cronin. Moore hurt his shoulder in the second half of last week's win over the New York Giants, but he was able to return and should be fine to play in Week 11 on the road against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings this Sunday. Although Moore has been the team's second leading receiver through 10 weeks behind second-year wideout Rome Odunze, he's been pretty unreliable for fantasy purposes and has only one receiving touchdown on the year. Through nine games, Moore has 30 catches on 48 targets for 403 yards and one TD through the air. He also has a TD on the ground and has thrown a TD pass. The 28-year-old has a matchup to exploit this weekend in New York, but he's been a low-volume, low-ceiling WR4/flex in fantasy.

Tetairoa McMillan was the top wide receiver again for the Panthers in the 17-7 loss against New Orleans, but his numbers were only adequate. The rookie wide receiver totaled 60 yards on five receptions and registered 11 PPR fantasy points. This was the third time in five games in which McMillan posted double-digit PPR points. In Week 11, the Panthers are up against the Atlanta Falcons, who ranked eighth in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to WRs entering Week 10. Atlanta also ranked 31st in FFPG allowed to RBs over the four weeks leading up to Week 10 and allowed 244 rushing yards to Jonathan Taylor on Sunday. With Atlanta being vulnerable to the run more than the passing game, expect the Panthers to rely on their ground game. Despite a run-first approach, fantasy players should continue to start McMillan, as he can provide a decent statistical floor in any week.
