Elijah Moore Held To 20 Yards In Week 4

Sunday, October 1, 10:25 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Elijah Moore caught two of his four targets for 20 yards and lost 20 yards on his lone carry in a 28-3 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 4. Moore and the rest of the Cleveland offense struggled to get anything going with rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson making his first NFL start on Sunday. After the quiet outing, Moore will head into his bye in Week 5 with 17 catches for 148 scoreless yards in four games. After his bye, Moore will take on the San Francisco 49ers at home in Week 6.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Still Looking For Breakout

Saturday, September 23, 4:56 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was targeted five times in Week 1 and six times in Week 2, but he is not yet threatening the workloads of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The 21-year-old has only been on the field for 58% of snaps and the targets he has seen are at an average depth of just 1.9 yards. In Week 3 against the Panthers, Smith-Njigba will line up against Jimmy Chinn or Troy Hill, who have managed most of the slot corner snaps for Carolina in the first two weeks of the season. Smith-Njigba is definitely worth holding but the only reason to start him in Week 3 is if Metcalf (ribs) is ruled out.
