Who Should I Start? Tyler Boyd or DJ Moore

Tuesday, July 1, 12:16 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers reporter Mark Kaboly said on 93.7 The Fan that the team has had talks with free-agent wide receiver Tyler Boyd. It comes a day after Boyd said he's "absolutely" be interested in playing for the Steelers. It's unclear if a formal offer was made to Boyd, but the money that he's been offered around the league this offseason hasn't been in the neighborhood of what he's looking for. The Steelers acquired tight end Jonnu Smith in a trade on Monday with the Miami Dolphins, but they could still use additional receiver depth behind DK Metcalf. As things currently stand, Calvin Austin III is set for WR2 duties with Roman Wilson, Robert Woods, Scotty Miller and Ben Skowronek also on the roster. After eight seasons with the Bengals, Boyd caught 39 passes for 390 yards and no touchdowns in 16 games (eight starts) for Tennessee in 2024.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore caught five of his seven targets for 64 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. After two very underwhelming performances, Moore bounced back by tying his season-high in catches while scoring his second and third touchdowns of the season. Neither Moore nor teammate Rome Odunze has been consistent this season, but the latter has typically been more productive, so Sunday's performance certainly bucked a trend within the Bears' offense. The veteran receiver isn't guaranteed to have fantasy relevance every week going forward, but Week 12 showed that he's still capable of producing at an elite level. Moore is back in the high-end WR3 tier for Week 13 against the Philadelphia Eagles.
