News: 6 days agoMoore caught four of six targets for eight yards and carried the ball three times for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Cowboys.

Spin: The speedy wideout caught the Dallas defense napping when he dashed for a 45-yard TD in the second quarter, the first rushing touchdown of his NFL career. Moore doubled his catch total on the season as well, albeit without contributing much yardage through the air, and while his versatile usage is intriguing from a fantasy perspective, he'll need to begin seeing more volume to be a reliable option outside of best-ball formats. Moore faces a daunting matchup in Week 4 against an elite 49ers defense that's used to seeing the likes of Deebo Samuel line up in the backfield during practice.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Moore has struggled to stay on the field since Arizona drafted him in the second round in 2021. The versatile slot receiver handled 72 touches in 14 games as a rookie but was limited to 47 touches in eight games last season. Moore was featured at times (eight-plus targets in five games) and sat 30th at WR in fantasy PPG during the seven weeks he played in full. He is severely limited by a short-range role (career 3.2 aDOT), which helps his catch rate (79%) and RAC (7.6) but crushes his yardage (8.9 YPR) and scoring opportunities (three end zone targets). The 23-year-old's tiny frame (5-foot-7, 181 lbs.) is going to cap his ceiling and the Arizona offense may struggle with Kyler Murray likely to miss time rehabbing a torn ACL, but he's positioned for heavy usage with only Marquise Brown ahead on the depth chart. Moore is a sneaky late-round flier.
