Week 8 WR Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Starts, sits, sleepers and a bust
CBS Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- D.J. Moore, Rashee Rice, Emeka Egbuka, and Ladd McConkey are showing positive progress in their injury recoveries and could return for Week 8, while the statuses of DeVonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle remain uncertain.
- Moore, recovering from a shoulder injury, practiced in a non-contact jersey and is considered a No. 2 Fantasy receiver if he plays against the Ravens; if not, Keon Coleman is a strong No. 3 option.
- Rice, dealing with a hamstring injury, returned to practice and is likely to play against the Broncos, though he faces a tough matchup; he is recommended as a No. 2 Fantasy receiver.
- Egbuka and McConkey, both managing concussion protocols, practiced Wednesday with Egbuka favored as a No. 2 Fantasy receiver against the Falcons, while McConkey should be started only in three-receiver leagues if he plays against the Rams.
- Updates on all injured receivers, including Smith and Waddle, will be provided throughout the week to assist Fantasy managers in making lineup decisions for Week 8.
