Who Should I Start? JuJu Smith-Schuster or Skyy Moore

Saturday, October 11, 11:08 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster could be entering his final week of fantasy relevance. Through five games, the veteran has caught 16 of 21 targets for 168 yards and a touchdown, primarily operating out of the slot. Smith-Schuster has been a steady part of the Chiefs' passing attack, logging 74% of snaps and routes, but that role is likely to diminish soon. With Rashee Rice set to return from suspension in Week 7, Smith-Schuster's playing time and target share could take a significant hit. For Week 6, however, he draws a favorable matchup against a Lions defense that's allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Smith-Schuster carries deep-league FLEX appeal in what could be his final start-worthy week for Kansas City.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Skyy Moore saw a spike in Week 3's matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Moore had seen just five offensive snaps through the first two games of the season, but saw his snap share shoot up to 52% in the 49ers' 16-15 win on Sunday. With Jauan Jennings (ankle/shoulder) absent from the game, Kendrick Bourne moved to the outside, opening the door for Moore to operate as the team's slot receiver. The jump in usage didn't equate to much production, however, and he finished the day with one reception for 10 yards. The increased role can't be expected to last. Now that Demarcus Robinson's three-game suspension has been served, Moore will be relegated to return duty in short order. So far in 2025, Moore has handled three kickoffs and eight punts for a combined 151 return yards.
