The Chicago Bears (1-2) will visit the Las Vegas Raiders (1-2) in Week 4. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR DJ Moore.
Is DJ Moore Playing in Week 4?
Moore is not on the injury report and is expected to play.

Should You Start or Sit DJ Moore in Week 4?
DJ Moore was supposed to be the target earning safety net in Chicago while the young options developed.
That may have been the plan, but if Rome Odunze is already ready to be a star?
It certainly looks that way, and if Colston Loveland can grow with time, Moore’s opportunity count could shrink further (7.1% third-down target share this season).
There is one note that should help comfort you in the short term. In Week 1, before the Bears were aware of just how productive Odunze could be, Moore posted a 17.8 aDOT. In the two weeks since, his mark sits at 6.8, and that’s something you should be happy with.
Odunze is clearly the better athlete at this point, and the shortening of Moore’s routes means that Ben Johnson still wants him involved.
That could change if the TE room earns more of those looks, but I think, moving forward, something like 4-6 catches for 50-70 yards is a reasonable expectation. Moore is a PPR flex who might be able to be acquired on the cheap with just 135 receiving yards through three weeks.
