Elijah Moore Dealing with General Leg Soreness

Sunday, July 27, 2:48 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Elijah Moore (leg) has been dealing with general leg soreness and was not spotted much at Sunday's training camp practice. Moore signed a one-year, $5 million deal with the Bills this offseason, his third team in the last four years. With Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman presumed to top the depth chart, Moore entered camp in a battle with Joshua Palmer and Curtis Samuel (hamstring) for any meaningful snaps as the Bills' third receiver. Moore should be considered day-to-day, but in a Joe Brady offense that will see a fair share of targets diverted to tight ends and running backs, any time missed will be detrimental to his attempts at carving out a role. As such, he can remain off the radar in even the deepest fantasy formats.

Malik Washington Firmly Entrenched as Dolphins' WR3

Sunday, August 10, 3:02 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington "is WR No. 3" behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, according to Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald. A sixth-round pick out of Virginia in the 2024 draft, Washington recorded 26 catches for 223 yards in 14 games (three starts) for the Dolphins as a rookie. With Hill (oblique) currently sidelined by an oblique injury, Washington could be in line for a larger role than might otherwise be expected. However, Hill's availability for Week 1 is not currently thought to be in danger. If Hill is healthy, he and Waddle should dominate wide receiver targets in Miami. Washington would need one or both of the Dolphins' star receivers to miss time to factor in fantasy this season, but it's noteworthy that he appears to be the clear next man up in the pecking order.
