Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore (hip, groin) did not participate in the Bears' walk-through on Wednesday, according to the team. The participation for players is an estimate since no practice was held, but Moore would not have practiced anyway. Moore. suffered the injury during Monday night's win over Washington and then had to stay in the hospital overnight in Washington, D.C. He was productive before leaving, catching three of five targets for 42 yards and adding 10 rushing yards on two carries. His status will be monitored throughout the week, with further updates to follow.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Van Jefferson recorded 102 yards and a touchdown on three catches in his team's 23-13 preseason victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Friday. Jefferson scored a 65-yard touchdown on a long catch-and-run in the second quarter. The 29-year-old is entering his first season in Tennessee after logging 24 catches for 276 yards and two touchdowns in 17 games for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2024. Jefferson projects to open the season as the WR3 in Tennessee alongside veterans Calvin Ridley and Tyler Lockett. However, he may struggle to hold off the team's pair of fourth-round rookie wide receivers, Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike. Jefferson should be off the radar of fantasy managers in 2025.
