Who Should I Start? Skyy Moore or Tez Johnson

Tuesday, September 23, 5:10 PM

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.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tez Johnson has stepped up for this offense in recent weeks. However, Johnson gave fantasy managers a dud last week when he hauled in one of his three targets for six yards in the loss to the Buffalo Bills. His role in the offense could be reduced with Chris Godwin (leg) possibly returning in Week 12. If that happens, Johnson is going to be a risky starting option. The 23-year-old offers big-play potential, but can also fall out of the gameplan. Fantasy managers should view Johnson as a boom-or-bust flex option for the Week 12 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.
