Buffalo wideout DJ Moore left Thursday’s game with a shoulder injury and was ruled out at halftime; Adam Schefter said the issue isn’t serious and Moore could return in Week 3 vs. the Chargers. In his absence, fantasy managers should expect increased targets for Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, and Keon Coleman, with Dalton Kincaid emerging as the Bills’ primary passing-game option after a 5-catch, 130-yard performance against the Texans (and a TD in the first half vs. Detroit). Moore’s return would significantly boost Buffalo’s aerial ceiling.

FantasyPros identifies four wide receivers with WR1 upside in 2026—Christian Watson (GB), DJ Moore (BUF), Marvin Harrison Jr. (ARI), and Parker Washington (JAX)—who are being drafted in the middle rounds but could finish top-12 due to clearer targets, quarterback play, and scheme: Watson could finally win a larger role in Green Bay, Moore becomes Josh Allen's top option in Buffalo, Harrison Jr. lands in a LaFleur-led Arizona attack with improved QB play, and Washington offers solid PPR volume in Jacksonville.
Defector's 2026 Bills preview argues the team remains a badly run operation despite Josh Allen, blaming Beane and Pegula for roster missteps, a poor run defense, a controversial DJ Moore trade, and a coaching transition, with a new stadium doing little to hide an aging, underperforming roster and no clear path to another Super Bowl.
Week 1 of NFL preseason offered a mix of measured takeaways: Cam Ward’s early struggles for the Titans aren’t a panic signal, De’Zhaun Stribling flashed breakout potential for the 49ers, Fernando Mendoza’s strong debut won’t instantly crown him Week 1 starter, Drew Allar impressed for the Steelers but remains far from a guaranteed QB1, and DJ Moore’s Bills debut hints at a much-needed upgrade to Buffalo’s passing game; QB battles in Atlanta and Cleveland still look unsettled, and much of this is preseason noise rather than guarantees for the regular season.
Bills quarterback Josh Allen says Buffalo’s Super Bowl dream will come from persistence, especially with a revamped offense featuring DJ Moore and a new coaching approach from Joe Brady, as the team heads into training camp buoyed by optimism after playoff heartbreak.
Early training camp has produced seven standouts likely to influence the 2026 season: D.J. Moore shines with the Bills as a new top target for Josh Allen; Ja’Kobi Lane impresses Ravens coaches with contested-catch ability; Jonathon Brooks bursts back from injuries in Carolina and could form a backfield duo with Chuba Hubbard; Jalyx Hunt shows pass-rush potential for the Eagles; Arvell Reese demonstrates versatile linebacker play for the Giants; Salvon Ahmed draws buzz for the Bears as a possible 20+ carry back; and Peter Woods delivers interior disruption for the Chiefs, potentially reshaping their defensive line.
DJ Moore connected with Josh Allen for a 55-yard touchdown early as the Bills showcased a burgeoning QB-wideout connection on Day 5, a session marked by multiple fights including a scuffle between Dalton Kincaid and Kaleb-Elarms Orr. Off-field notes included CJ Gardner-Johnson working off to the side with a calf injury and Khalil Shakir delivering solid play as camp progresses toward real pads.
Through two days of training camp at St. John Fisher, Josh Allen and DJ Moore are building noticeable chemistry, Moore delivering highlight-reel catches, while rookie Kaleb Elarms-Orr has taken the reins at middle linebacker and other youngsters like Zane Durant and Michael Hoecht are making early impressions.
With DJ Moore moving on, Bears rookie-turned-second-year receiver Luther Burden III is positioned for a bigger role in 2026. Burden highlighted his offseason work, learning from Moore, and the belief that he can elevate his play, while head coach Ben Johnson signaled confidence in his development. Burden’s comments emphasize a focus on Week 1 readiness and continuing to win as he matures into a potential top target in the Bears’ offense.
