Who Should I Start? Skyy Moore or Brycen Tremayne

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Skyy Moore stands little chance of making an impact in Week 2, despite the injury bug biting key players on offense. Even though tight end George Kittle (hamstring) is on injured reserve and wide receiver Jauan Jennings (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, veterans Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Kendrick Bourne stand in Moore's way on the depth chart. Moore played just three snaps in Week 1, and even if he does see a greater run on Sunday, the offense will be helmed by Mac Jones and not Brock Purdy (toe, shoulder), who has been ruled out. Moore's only path to fantasy relevance is in leagues that count return yards. Last week against Seattle, he fielded one kickoff and four punts, totaling 63 return yards.

The Carolina Panthers are "bullish" on wide receiver Brycen Tremayne, according to Joseph Person of The Athletic. Tremayne went undrafted out of Stanford in 2023 and appeared in two games for the Washington Commanders in 2024, but he was able to crack Carolina's 53-man roster out of training camp. The Panthers traded veteran wide receiver Adam Thielen to the Minnesota Vikings on Wednesday, so Tremayne could now be one of the players Carolina calls upon to replace Thielen's production. The 25-year-old will open the season behind Tetairoa McMillan, Jalen Coker, and Xavier Legette in the team's wide receiver pecking order, leaving him to battle with David Moore and Jimmy Horn Jr. for the WR4 role in Carolina.
