2026 Week 5 Fantasy Football: DJ Moore Shoulder Injury Update

DJ Moore left Sunday's Bills loss to the Patriots in the second quarter with a shoulder injury and did not return, according to ProFootballTalk (NBC Sports). Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that the injury is not believed to be a long-term issue, but Bills head coach Joe Brady offered no update on Moore's condition or timeline after the 29-26 defeat.

This is the same shoulder Moore hurt in Week 2 — he aggravated it Sunday after just one catch and one carry. That's the concerning part: the injury keeps coming back, and the Bills haven't offered any clarity on whether he'll miss time heading into Week 5.

Moore had produced at a reasonable pace before this — 12 catches for 178 yards and a touchdown through four games — so the role is real. But with no timeline from the coaching staff, he's a must-monitor on the injury report this week. If he's listed as questionable or worse, you need a contingency plan ready. Dynasty managers can stay calm given Schefter's "not long-term" framing, but redraft owners can't afford to start him blind in Week 5 without a practice update first.
