Skyy Moore DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (abdomen) is listed as doubtful for next weekend's Super Bowl matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. The third-year pro suddenly popped up with a core muscle injury in late October and was immediately placed on injured reserve. Moore was designated to return from IR earlier this week and practiced in a limited capacity over the last two days but isn't yet ready to return to in-game action. With another week of practices on tap before the post-season's finale, the 24-year-old still has a shot to elevate his status for the big game. The last time we saw Moore appear in a contest was before the team acquired fellow wideout DeAndre Hopkins, so it will be interesting to see how he's deployed when he's finally healthy. It is unclear whether that will be before their meeting with the Eagles, so expect Hopkins and Justin Watson to continue to round out Kansas City's WR rotation in the meantime.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (abdomen) had his practice window opened on Thursday to return from Injured Reserve and he was listed as limited. While Moore remains on IR, it means that he now has a shot to be activated in order to play in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, Feb. 9, versus the Philadelphia Eagles. The 24-year-old landed on IR with a core-muscle injury back on Oct. 24 but is feeling good enough to return to the practice field. The former second-round selection was not expected to be able to return for the Chiefs' playoff run, though, so even though he's back at practice, there's no guarantee KC will make him active for the Super Bowl. In six games in 2024 before his injury, Moore only saw three receptions and couldn't haul any of them in. If Moore is active against the Eagles, don't expect him to be on the field much, if at all, in New Orleans.

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said on Monday that there are no plans for wide receivers Rashee Rice (knee) and Skyy Moore (abdomen) to return during the postseason. Rice injured his knee in Week 4 and needed season-ending surgery on his ACL, MCL and meniscus, so it's no surprise that he won't be ready for another playoff run in January. The 24-year-old should have a good shot at being healthy for the start of the 2025 season, but he could be facing a suspension due to off-the-field legal issues. Moore, meanwhile, has been on Injured Reserve since late October due to a core-muscle injury. When healthy, the 24-year-old has found himself buried on the WR depth chart. He couldn't corral any of his three targets in six games this year before getting hurt, and Moore had only 43 catches for 494 yards and one TD in 30 games (11 starts) in 2022 and 2023 combined.
