Who Should I Start? Jalen Nailor or Skyy Moore

Saturday, January 11, 5:26 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor will be a low-floor WR2 this Monday night when he squares off against the Los Angeles Rams on the road. The Michigan State alum was one of the more productive Vikings skill players in last week's loss to the Detroit Lions -; notching the second-most receiving yards behind fellow wideout Justin Jefferson. In fact, Nailor has been solid in his previous two appearances, registering eight receptions and 134 yards on nine targets. However, that production accounts for 29- and 32% of his catches and yards on the season, respectively. Otherwise, he averaged just 18.7 yards on 1.3 receptions in his other 15 outings. The 25-year-old has a wide, volatile range of outcomes this Monday. Still, he's been decently involved recently, and the pickings are slim in the Wild Card round. He clocks in as RotoBaller's PPR WR21 ahead of this weekend's action.

The Athletic's Nate Taylor writes that the Kansas City Chiefs could release wide receiver Skyy Moore this offseason and save $1.6 million on the 2025 salary cap, according to Over The Cap. Moore would leave behind just $467,819 in dead money. The 24-year-old former second-round pick (54th overall) in 2022 out of Western Michigan has really struggled in his three years in the NFL and hasn't earned much of a role on offense. The Chiefs can also create more salary cap space this season by converting a large chunk of quarterback Patrick Mahomes' $32.3 million roster bonus into a signing bonus. Moore dealt with an abdominal injury in 2024 that landed him on Injured Reserve for the majority of the regular season, and he wasn't able to return in the playoffs. He played in just six regular-season games and didn't record a single catch. Moore has 43 catches for 494 yards and one TD in 36 games to this point.
