Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Travis Hunter

The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain writes that the Chicago Bears are getting creative with DJ Moore under new head coach Ben Johnson in training camp as they look to get his hands on the ball as much as possible. "We're exploring some things," Johnson said. "What I've seen on tape and what I've come to learn about DJ is he's a physical, he's a run-after-catch, just-get-me-the-ball type of guy. Whether that's in the backfield, whether that's screens, I think he had a nice 'go' route the other day, there's a number of things we're looking to do and explore." Moore has 57 career carries (14 in 2024) and has been seen taking some handoffs out of the backfield this summer. There will be competition for targets in an offense with plenty of weapons, but Moore is the clear WR1 in Chicago with Keenan Allen gone and should be targeted as a low-end WR2 with upside in fantasy.

Jacksonville Jaguars two-way player Travis Hunter caught his first touchdown of training camp, a 5-yarder from Trevor Lawrence, as part of a successful practice at wide receiver on Tuesday. He took 24 snaps, his most in a single practice on offense so far, and "showed his considerable skills" as a receiver, according to Garry Smits of the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union. Hunter, who won the Heisman Trophy at Colorado last season, entered the NFL as the second overall pick in this year's draft and will attempt to play both receiver and cornerback with the Jags. The 22-year-old hasn't manned both positions in one practice yet, but head coach Liam Coen has indicated that should change soon. At receiver, Hunter has the talent to serve as an excellent complement to Jaguars No. 1 Brian Thomas Jr. The question is how much playing time he'll get at the position during games. So far in camp, Hunter has tallied 79 snaps on offense and 47 on defense.
