Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Rondale Moore (knee), who was carted off from training camp practice on Wednesday, suffered a season-ending knee injury. Moore suffered a non-contact injury on Wednesday, and although the specifics of the injury haven't been revealed, it's likely to be an ACL tear. It's a brutal blow for Moore and the Falcons' receiver depth behind Drake London, Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud III. The 24-year-old former second-rounder was acquired by Atlanta in a trade this offseason from the Arizona Cardinals and was competing with McCloud mainly for slot duties in Atlanta. Moore's injury should solidify McCloud as the team's starting slot man in three-receiver sets to open the regular season this fall.

Rondale Moore Carted Off With Leg Injury
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Rondale Moore (leg) was carted off during training camp practice on Wednesday, and doctors put an air cast on his right leg, which is never a good sign. It's unclear how the injury happened, but it appears that Moore might be set to miss significant time with a serious injury. Making matters even worse, the 24-year-old's injury was of the non-contact variety, which makes it even more likely that he might have suffered a potential season-ending injury. The former second-round pick in 2021 was trying to carve out a role as receiver depth in Atlanta in his first year with the team behind Drake London, Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud III. If Moore indeed suffered a significant injury, it will only cement McCloud's status as the team's starting slot receiver to open the year.

Darnell Mooney, Rondale Moore To Have Major Roles In 2024
Atlanta Falcons wide receivers Darnell Mooney and Rondale Moore "will be relied on to provide more consistency" throughout the 2024 season, according to Josh Kendall of The Athletic. Notably, the Falcons are expected to deploy numerous three-receiver sets, leaving room for both Mooney and Moore to contribute alongside Drake London. Mooney, a Tulane product, tallied 2,593 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns over his first four pro seasons. His best season came in 2021 when he racked up 1,055 receiving yards and five total touchdowns. If Mooney can return to his 2021 form, he'll be the Falcons' No. 2 wide receiver and a low-end FLEX option in fantasy football. Moore also flashed potential in Arizona prior to his trade from the Cardinals to the Falcons. Over his first three pro seasons, Moore has 1,201 receiving yards, 249 rushing yards, and four touchdowns. He, too, could become a fringe fantasy WR3 in the right situation.

Falcons Land Receiver Rondale Moore From Cardinals
The Atlanta Falcons are acquiring wide receiver Rondale Moore from the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday in exchange for quarterback Desmond Ridder, according to a source. Moore will give new quarterback Kirk Cousins yet another weapon in the passing game out of the slot. Drake London and tight end Kyle Pitts will be the top two aerial targets for Cousins in his first year in Atlanta, but Moore, 23, will provide plenty of speed out of the slot. The former second-round pick of the Cardinals in 2021 out of Purdue has scored just one touchdown in each of his three NFL seasons and had his best statistical season in his rookie year with a line of 54-435-1. From a fantasy perspective, it will be difficult for Moore to stand out in Atlanta after the Falcons also signed Darnell Mooney in free agency.

Rondale Moore Too Risky Of A Start Against The Seahawks
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rondale Moore's recent performance in the Cardinals' Week 17 victory over the Eagles, where he caught three passes for 26 yards and had two carries for eight yards, adds to a season marked by inconsistency. Despite consistent playing time, with a 60 percent share in 14 of 16 games, Moore has struggled to deliver significant yardage in most outings, with only five games surpassing 40 yards. Since quarterback Kyler Murray's return in Week 10, Moore's contributions have been limited, accumulating just 16 catches on 24 targets, six carries, 216 total yards, and one receiving touchdown in seven contests. Even though Moore and the Cardinal offense take on the Seahawk's defense in Week 18, which has conceded the eighth-most receptions to wide receivers, there's no guarantee of a breakthrough. To that end, fantasy managers should consider sitting Moore and opting for more reliable options to close out the year.

Rondale Moore Not Worth A Start
Arizona Cardinal's third-year receiver Rondale Moore faces off against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 17, who currently rank 12th against the pass. In the Cardinals' recent loss to the Bears, Moore showed his big-play potential with a 22-yard gain on 2-of-3 targets, though totaling only 30 yards. With teammate Marquise Brown now on the IR due to a knee issue, Moore becomes an intriguing fantasy stash. While he remains a big-play-dependent WR4, the increased opportunities stemming from Brown's absence could elevate Moore's role in the passing game. However, with Week 17 being championship week in most leagues, there are most likely better-starting options available for those playing in the title game. As such, Moore remains nothing more than a Week 17 bench stash.

Rondale Moore Not Worth The Risk In Week 16
In the Arizona Cardinals' Week 15 loss to the 49ers, wide receiver Rondale Moore caught 2-of-3 targets for a mere five yards and had one rushing attempt for three yards. Despite Arizona's receiving corps getting reinforcements post-bye week, Moore's role remained consistent. He was one of six Arizona players to see three targets, but his overall involvement was limited. Moore continues to be a big play-dependent WR4 from a fantasy perspective. The upcoming matchup against the Bears suggests that Moore may struggle to generate significant fantasy value on so few touches. Considering his limited recent production and potential challenges against Chicago, at this point fantasy managers can't consider Rondale anything better than a bench stash.

Rondale Moore Totals Eight Yards In Week 15 Loss
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rondale Moore continued to disappoint in the team's 45-29 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Moore finished the Week 15 contest with two catches on three targets for only five yards while carrying the ball once for a pickup of three yards. The 23-year-old was unable to capitalize when rookie Michael Wilson (shoulder) missed three games from Weeks 11-13 and remained silent with Wilson returning on Sunday. Moore has just one touchdown on the year and now has just 11 receiving yards on three receptions in the last two games. Marquise Brown aggravated his heel injury in Week 15 and could be forced to miss time, but even then, Moore just hasn't done enough for fantasy managers to get excited about picking him up off the waiver wire.

Rondale Moore A Week 15 Bench Stash
Arizona Cardinals wide-out Rondale Moore faces off against the top defense in the league in the San Francisco 49ers in Week 15 and may find it tough sledding. In Week 13, Moore was held to just one catch for 6 yards, and even though teammates Marquise Brown (heel) and Michael Wilson (neck) are listed as questionable for this game, there is the possibility at least one of them may play. Additionally, so far this season, Moore has racked up 9.0 yards per reception, which ranks 102nd in the NFL. He's also compiled 260 receiving yards and one TD through the air. Each ranks 131st in the league. Those are ugly numbers. Combine that with the brutal matchup and Moore is best left on fantasy benches.

Rondale Moore Has Just One Catch In Week 13
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rondale Moore's day in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers could have been much more fruitful, but he ended the 24-10 upset win with just a six-yard pickup on his only catch (two targets). Moore secured a long touchdown catch in the back of the end zone that was called back due to an offensive penalty and he did very little else on a day in which the Cardinals didn't need to throw the ball much after building an early lead and never being threatened by a Steelers offense that lost quarterback Kenny Pickett to an ankle injury early in the first half. He had a 48-yard touchdown catch (his first of the year) in Week 11 but has posted three catches for 41 yards in two games since. The 23-year-old hasn't gone over 50 yards receiving in a single game in 2023 and has a bad matchup in Week 15 against the San Francisco 49ers after a bye in Week 14.
