Skyy Moore DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

The Athletic's Nate Taylor writes that the Kansas City Chiefs could release wide receiver Skyy Moore this offseason and save $1.6 million on the 2025 salary cap, according to Over The Cap. Moore would leave behind just $467,819 in dead money. The 24-year-old former second-round pick (54th overall) in 2022 out of Western Michigan has really struggled in his three years in the NFL and hasn't earned much of a role on offense. The Chiefs can also create more salary cap space this season by converting a large chunk of quarterback Patrick Mahomes' $32.3 million roster bonus into a signing bonus. Moore dealt with an abdominal injury in 2024 that landed him on Injured Reserve for the majority of the regular season, and he wasn't able to return in the playoffs. He played in just six regular-season games and didn't record a single catch. Moore has 43 catches for 494 yards and one TD in 36 games to this point.

According to the team, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (abdomen) will not suit up for the Super Bowl. Moore was able to practice during the week in a limited capacity but carried a doubtful tag on the final injury report. The third-year wideout was unable to turn the corner in time. During the regular season, Moore played in just six games and did not catch a pass. He saw just three total targets and only logged more than 15 offensive snaps in one game. As a result, fantasy managers should expect rookie Xavier Worthy and tight end Travis Kelce to lead the Kansas City Passing attack. DeAndre Hopkins, Marquise Brown, and JuJu Smith-Schuster will also see targets in this game. Worthy led the way in their Conference Championship victory over the Buffalo Bills as he tallied over 100 yards with a touchdown and should be viewed as the top option in the wide receiver room.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (abdomen) is considered doubtful for Sunday's Super Bowl matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Moore has been on the injured reserve since October due to an abdominal injury. He was designated to return last week, but was only able to get through limited practice sessions since then. It seems increasingly likely that Moore misses the big game, but his absence won't mean too much considering he has missed a majority of the season already. The Chiefs will head into the Super Bowl with Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown, and DeAndre Hopkins as their top wideouts.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (abdomen), who remains on Injured Reserve, was listed as limited on Thursday in practice for the second straight day this week. Although the Chiefs opened Moore's practice window to come off IR recently, he has yet to put in a full practice and was listed as doubtful to play in Super Bowl LIX against the Philadelphia Eagles at the end of last week. Moore is almost certainly going to have to upgrade to a full practice on Friday to have a realistic chance of coming off IR to be active on Sunday. There's no guarantee that Moore will even see any offensive snaps against the Eagles in the unlikely event that he's even active. The 24-year-old former second-round selection in 2022 out of Western Michigan had no catches on three targets in the six games he played in 2024 before landing on IR.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore (abdomen) was the only player on the team listed as limited in their first practice of the week on Wednesday. The Chiefs opened Moore's practice window last week to return from Injured Reserve potentially for the Super Bowl this Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles, although the Chiefs listed him as doubtful last Friday. The 24-year-old is going to have to upgrade to a full practice on either Thursday or Friday to improve his already dim chances of being activated from IR and suiting up this weekend in New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX. He has been on IR since October with a core-muscle injury, so even if he were to be activated, he may not even see the field at all. Moore has so far been a bust for the Chiefs since being taken in the second round in 2022, catching 43 of 74 targets for 494 yards and one touchdown in three seasons.
