Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or DJ Moore

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) is inactive for his team's Week 17 matchup against the New York Giants due to ankle and knee injuries. The 33-year-old has recorded 174 scrimmage yards on 34 touches across 12 games so far this season in a backup role behind Raiders RB1 Ashton Jeanty. With Mostert sidelined, Jeanty could see more of a true three-down role in Week 17 against New York. Raiders reserve running backs Dylan Laube and Zamir White could see an uptick in playing time as well. The Giants have been one of the NFL's worst defenses against the run this season, so Jeanty could be in line for a big day if he dominates backfield touches in Week 17.

There is a possibility that the Chicago Bears will look to trade wide receiver DJ Moore this offseason, potentially to the Las Vegas Raiders in a package that would include All-Pro pass-rusher Maxx Crosby. The Raiders are heading into a full rebuild in 2026 and could use a receiver for their expected No. 1 overall pick of a quarterback. Meanwhile, the Bears need an elite pass-rusher. The 28-year-old Moore has not been a great fit in Chicago's offense in 2025 in head coach Ben Johnson's first season. After a 1,000-yard season in 2023 in his first year in the Windy City, Moore has regressed over the last two years and currently sits at 49 catches for 671 yards and six touchdowns in 16 games played. The emergence of rookie receiver Luther Burden III late this year certainly could make Moore expendable this offseason.
