Here is our fantasy football start/sit article, including all the players we’re calling sleepers and duds this week. Below, let’s take a closer look at a few players to consider this week.

Tyreek Hill (WR – MIA)

“Unfortunately, Tyreek Hill’s fantasy outlook took a massive hit with Tua Tagovailoa going on injured reserve earlier this week. The superstar played four games during the 2022 season without Tagovailoa, averaging a 22.4% target share, 26% target per route run rate, and a 36.5% first-round target share (per Fantasy Points Data). However, he only averaged 12.6 fantasy points per game during those four contests, scoring 9.5 or fewer in half the matchups. Meanwhile, Hill faces a Seattle Seahawks defense that has held wide receivers to 15.1 fantasy points per game over the first two weeks, the fourth-fewest in the NFL. Furthermore, Seattle has two of the highest PFF coverage grade cornerbacks this year – Riq Woolen (84.6) and Devon Witherspoon (70.1). Expect Mike Macdonald to do everything possible to shut down Hill.”

DJ Moore (WR – CHI)

“DJ Moore has finished as WR41 and WR30, and you may need to consider benching him. The offensive line is not playing well, and Caleb Williams is off to a rough start. The usage is fine; Moore has seen 18 targets in two weeks. But the quality of targets has been pretty poor. Moore has only been able to bring in 11 of those 18 targets for 89 yards. Right now, Sleeper has his line at 61.5 yards, and Caleb Williams‘s is at 204.5 yards. Williams’s completions are set at 19.5, and touchdowns are down to 0.5. It’s not good in Chicago. Good news, they get the Rams and Panthers the next two weeks.”

Malik Nabers (WR – NYG)

“Malik Nabers had a mammoth week against the Commanders, but that’s not surprising. Every wide receiver blows up against Washington. This week, Nabers is visiting the brutal Browns secondary, and it’s hard to see the Giants passing game getting anything going against one of the league’s best pass defenses. I’m not saying you need to sit Nabers, but if you have a viable alternative, I’d consider it.”
