Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore had a disappointing 2023 season and finished the year with a knee injury. Moore needs to re-establish his role within the offense, whether as a primary slot receiver or a trusted all-around receiver like seven-year veteran Justin Watson. The 23-year-old is likely to compete with Kadarius Toney, who also disappointed last year, for regular-season snaps if both players make the initial roster. If Moore is released or traded on roster cutdown day, it would create $1.29 million in salary cap space for the Chiefs with less than $500,000 in dead money, according to Over the Cap. It's saying a lot that the 23-year-old second-rounder in 2022 isn't a roster lock, even with Rashee Rice expected to serve a suspension. But he has just 43 receptions for 494 yards and one touchdown in his first two NFL seasons, and the Chiefs added Marquise Brown and rookie Xavier Worthy this offseason.
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee), who was activated from Injured Reserve on Wednesday, practiced in full all week and doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers. Moore will be available to play in this weekend's big game, but he could still be a healthy scratch since he hasn't played in a game since Week 15. Even if the 23-year-old is active, fantasy managers shouldn't expect the second-year wideout to be on the field all that much for the Chiefs' offense. In 14 regular season games (eight starts), Moore was a disappointment in his second year in the NFL with only 21 catches for 244 yards and one touchdown on 38 targets. Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Justin Watson should play in three-wide sets alongside rookie Rashee Rice in the Super Bowl.
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee) managed to put in another day of full practice on Thursday. The Chiefs officially activated Moore from Injured Reserve on Wednesday, but that doesn't guarantee that he'll actually be active on Sunday for the Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers. The 23-year-old second-year wideout hasn't played in a game since Week 15, so even if he does suit up for the big game, fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting Moore to have a major role on offense for the Chiefs. In 14 games during the regular season, Moore wasn't really fantasy relevant, catching 21 of his 38 targets for 244 yards and only one touchdown. Stay away from him in fantasy lineups for Super Bowl LVIII.
The Kansas City Chiefs officially activated wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee) from Injured Reserve on Wednesday. The Chiefs originally designated Moore to return from Injured Reserve on Jan. 17 and had until Wednesday to activate him so that he can be available for the Super Bowl this Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. The 23-year-old's activation doesn't guarantee he'll be active this weekend, though, and he has not played in a game since Week 15. If Moore is active against San Francisco, fantasy managers would be wise to avoid him in DFS, since he's unlikely to see much of the field. He's going to need to show the Chiefs that he's at full speed in practices this week to have a shot at suiting up on Super Bowl Sunday. Moore had only 21 catches for 244 yards and a touchdown during the regular season before getting hurt. UPDATE: Moore put in a full practice Wednesday.
Skyy Moore Listed As Questionable After First Week Of Super Bowl Prep
The Kansas City Chiefs have listed wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee) as questionable for Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday, Feb. 11, against the San Francisco 49ers after the first week of practice. Moore was limited in practice all week and is trending towards a return, but the Chiefs will have to decide whether to officially activate him from Injured Reserve by next Wednesday. The 23-year-old second-year wideout has not played for the team since Week 15, so even if he's activated and available to face San Francisco, it's unlikely that Moore will be very involved on offense, especially with Kadarius Toney looking likely to suit up after also being out since Week 15. In 14 regular-season games, Moore had only 21 catches for 244 yards and one touchdown on 38 targets.
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee), who is still on Injured Reserve and hasn't played in a game since Week 15, was limited in the team's practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Moore didn't practice at all last week before missing the AFC Championship win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. It sounds like the 23-year-old is getting closer to a return, but the Chiefs will have to officially activate Moore from Injured Reserve by next Saturday, Feb. 10, for him to be eligible to play in the Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers. Even if Moore is activated and plays against the Niners, fantasy managers should look to avoid him after he caught only 21 passes for 244 yards and one touchdown during the regular season.
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee) was listed as limited on the team's estimated practice report for Wednesday. Moore remains on Injured Reserve and has not played since Week 15. He was designated to return from IR on Jan. 17 but has not been activated for any of the team's three playoff games. The 23-year-old will need to be officially activated from IR by Feb. 7 to be eligible to play in the Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers on Feb. 11. Even if Moore is activated by the end of next week, he figures to have a very minimal role in KC's offense and won't be worth looking at for DFS lineups. During the regular season, the second-year wideout caught only 21 of 38 targets for 244 yards and one touchdown.
The Kansas City Chiefs have ruled out wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee) for Sunday's AFC Championship game against the Baltimore Ravens. The Chiefs designated Moore to return from Injured Reserve on Jan. 17, but he hasn't been able to practice since and will miss yet another game. The 23-year-old second-year pass-catcher was a big disappointment during the regular season as well, catching just 21 of his 38 targets for 244 yards and one touchdown. If the Chiefs advance to another Super Bowl, Moore could certainly be activated from IR and play, but he probably wouldn't see the field all that much since he hasn't seen game action since the team's Week 15 win over the New England Patriots.
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee) is not practicing on Wednesday to begin AFC title game prep. The second-year pass-catcher was designated to return from Injured Reserve on January 17 and logged limited practice sessions last Wednesday and Thursday. However, he did not practice on Friday and isn't participating today, so he might not be ready to be activated for Sunday's matchup with the Baltimore Ravens. Moore has hauled in just 43 of his 71 targets for 494 yards and one touchdown through his first 30 regular season games, so he's not worth much consideration in DFS lineups if he is activated.
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (knee) will not come off the Injured Reserve to play in Sunday's Divisional Round game versus the Buffalo Bills. Moore returned to practice this week but isn't ready to contribute on offense. The 23-year-old second-year player was a disappointment once again before even getting injured, catching 21 of his 38 targets for 244 yards and the first touchdown of his career in 14 regular season games before getting injured in Week 15. Moore has not played since but could be available as receiver depth for KC if they beat the Bills in Buffalo and advance to another AFC Championship next weekend. Rookie Rashee Rice has become the Chiefs' only reliable pass-catcher for fantasy purposes, outside of tight end Travis Kelce. Justin Watson and Marquez Valdes-Scantling are the starters alongside Rice.
