News

  • Let go by Carolina

    Moncrief was waived by the Panthers on Friday.

    Analysis: Moncrief was claimed off waivers from the Steelers in early November but wasn't targeted in his three games with the Panthers. The 26-year-old had caught 48 of 89 targets for 668 yards and three touchdowns with Jacksonville last season, but he's been unable to carve out a role with Pittsburgh or Carolina in 2019.

  • Claimed by Carolina

    Moncrief was claimed off waivers by the Panthers on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Moncrief signed a two-year, $9 million deal with the Steelers in March but was waived by the team Saturday. The 26-year-old hasn't played more than 18 offensive snaps since Week 1 and was actually a healthy scratch for two games. The Panthers have received minimal production from No. 3 wide receiver Jarius Wright in recent weeks, which could allow Moncrief to step in should he make an early impression.

  • Let go Saturday

    Moncrief was waived by the Steelers on Saturday.

    Analysis: This move felt like only a matter of time considering the Steelers could now be in line for a 2020 compensatory pick as a result. A dreadful opening game against the Patriots in prime time was a precursor of bad things to come, as Moncrief never saw more than 20 offensive snaps in the four ensuing games in which he was active, recording just four receptions for 18 yards in five games with the Steelers. With a bevy of teams in need of wide receiver help, it seems likely Moncrief will catch on…read more

  • Catchless in Monday Night win

    Moncrief was unable to haul in either of his two targets during Monday's 27-14 win over Miami.

    Analysis: Moncrief has now been targeted four times over his last two games after an early-season benching. He has just one 11-yard reception to show for it, and he has just two games in which he has recorded a reception all season. With the way rookie Diontae Johnson has come on in recent weeks, Moncrief is a poor play Sunday against the Colts.

  • First reception since opener

    Moncrief caught one of two targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Moncrief saw his first game action in a month but played just 14 snaps. Heading into a Week 7 bye, fantasy players have few reasons to roster Moncrief.

  • Back in the mix

    Moncrief is active for Sunday night's game against the Chargers after being a healthy scratch in two of the Steelers' previous three games, Kevin Gorman of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

    Analysis: He'll re-enter the mix, with James Washington (shoulder) sidelined, but with Devlin Hodges starting at QB for Pittsburgh in Week 6, Moncrief isn't a high-percentage fantasy play, given that JuJu Smith-Schuster and Diontae Johnson are also in the team's wideout mix.

  • Included among inactives

    Moncrief (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Moncrief will be a healthy scratch for the second time in three games after playing only three offensive snaps in the 27-3 win over the Bengals in Week 4. JuJu Smith-Schuster, Diontae Johnson, James Washington, Johnny Holton and Ryan Switzer will be the Steelers' active receivers Sunday.

  • Not targeted in return

    Moncrief wasn't targeted during Monday's 27-3 win against the Bengals. Per Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, coach Mike Tomlin said of Moncrief on Tuesday: "He's working extremely hard at practice. He had an opportunity to have a helmet on last game, he only got three plays, but I just like his attitude, his work and we'll keep working to see if an opportunity presents itself."

    Analysis: Moncrief has had a topsy-turvy tenure with the Steelers, entering training camp as a starter, only to suffer a dislocated finger that has submarined his season to date. The injury likely contributed to his issue with drops through two games -- five on 11 targets -- and the team opted to make him a healthy scratch Week 3. Moncrief got back on the field in some capacity Monday, but he still ranked fifth among Pittsburgh wide receivers in offensive snap share (5 percent) behind James Washington…read more

  • Avoids inactive list

    Moncrief is active for Monday's contest versus the Bengals, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Moncrief has endured a precipitous fall since signing a two-year deal with the Steelers in March. He opened training camp in the starting lineup, but a dislocated finger shortly thereafter set him back and likely contributed to his issue with drops during the first two games of the season. The team even made Moncrief a healthy scratch Week 3. With the tight end position affected by injuries -- Vance McDonald (shoulder) is inactive and Xavier Grimble (calf) is on IR -- Moncrief and the rest of…read more

  • Healthy scratch Sunday

    Moncrief is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Joe Rutter of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

    Analysis: Moncrief had issues with drops through the Steelers' first two games, so he'll sit this one out, which sets the stage for Diontae Johnson to see an increased role in the Steelers' Week 3 offense.

  • Headed for inactive status

    Moncrief is expected to be a healthy inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Signed to a two-year deal in the offseason with the expectation that he would prove to be a competent replacement for Antonio Brown in the starting lineup, Moncrief was a disaster through Pittsburgh's first two games, nabbing only three passes for seven yards on 11 targets while being plagued by drops. With Pittsburgh informing rookie Diontae Johnson earlier this week that he would start, Moncrief was already expected to be headed for a downturn in snaps, but the inactive status is even more…read more

  • Fewer reps expected moving forward

    Moncrief is expected to have a reduced role in the offense after rookie Diontae Johnson was named a starting wide receiver, Josh Rowntree of 93.7 The Fan Pittsburgh reports.

    Analysis: Moncrief was penciled in as a starter upon signing with the Steelers in March and remained there after the draft and throughout the offseason program, training camp and preseason slate. He suffered a dislocated finger in late July, which lingered into the season and may explain his issue with drops after two games (he has five on his 11 targets). With a reduction in snaps on tap, Moncrief will yield his standing as a vertical threat to Johnson as the Steelers transition to an offense directed…read more

  • Another dropped pass

    Moncrief dropped his only target in Pittsburgh's 28-26 loss to Seattle on Sunday.

    Analysis: The dislocated finger suffered in training camp appears to be an issue as the ball went through Moncrief's hands, smacked off his facemask and landed in the arms of Seahawks safety Bradley McDougald. This was Moncrief's fifth drop in two games and he should not be on fantasy rosters at this time.

  • Playing through dislocated finger

    Moncrief will continue to play through a dislocated finger against the Seahawks on Sunday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Moncrief suffered a dislocated finger in training camp and has practiced in full for multiple weeks, but he stated Wednesday that he's still playing through pain. "There's nothing you can do to a dislocated finger," Moncrief said, "especially when you're a receiver. You've just got to tough out the pain and go." The lingering injury sheds some light on the context of Moncrief's disappointing Week 1 performance, when he caught only three of 10 targets for seven yards and dropped a would-be…read more

  • Dreadful in debut

    Moncrief caught three passes for seven yards in Pittsburgh's 33-3 loss to New England on Sunday.

    Analysis: Moncrief looked awful in his first game as a Steeler, wasting his team-leading 10 targets. He had multiple dropped passes, including a third-quarter, would-be touchdown that would have closed the Patriots' lead to 10 points. It is encouraging that Ben Roethlisberger looked to Moncrief so often -- which could translate to some big games -- but another repeat performance may result in those targets going elsewhere.

  • Disappointing in preseason win

    Moncrief brought in his only target for one yard and lost a fumble in the Steelers' 17-7 preseason win over the Chiefs on Saturday.

    Analysis: The veteran wideout didn't exactly have the most productive of nights, and his first-quarter fumble short-circuited the Steelers' third possession before it even got underway. Moncrief has enjoyed a solid camp by all accounts, but he is being outperformed by second-year wideout James Washington in preseason action thus far. It remains to be seen if that will be enough for Washington to overtake Moncrief for the No. 2 role he's been largely projected for to open the season.

  • Moving past finger injury

    Moncrief (finger) returned to practice Wednesday, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Coach Mike Tomlin said the 26-year-old wideout picked up right where he left off before his recent finger injury, catching three touchdowns from Ben Roethlisberger during Wednesday's session. It does seem Moncrief has competition for the No. 2 receiver job, with James Washington catching four of five targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in the preseason opener against Tampa Bay. It isn't clear if Moncrief will be available for Saturday's exhibition versus the Chiefs.

  • Listed as starter

    Moncrief is listed as a starter opposite JuJu Smith-Schuster on the Steelers' initial posted depth chart.

    Analysis: Moncrief dealt with a finger issue at practice last week, so it remains to be seen if he'll be 100 percent for Friday's preseason opener against the Buccaneers. In any case, if Moncrief is able to hold on to a starting role this season, there's an opportunity for him to flourish in the Pittsburgh offense. With that in mind, Paul Zeise of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette notes that Moncrief has already developed chemistry with QB Ben Roethlisberger, while predicting that the 26-year-old wideout will…read more

  • Injures finger

    Moncrief suffered a finger injury during Monday's practice, Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

    Analysis: Moncrief suffered the injury while attempting to catch a deep ball during practice according to Lolley, then left the practice field to be attended to by trainers. The severity of Moncrief's finger issue is undisclosed, and it remains to be seen whether he'll miss any practice time. The 25-year-old is competing for the No. 2 wide receiver job in Pittsburgh.

  • Opens camp as starter

    Moncrief opened Pittsburgh's training camp Friday starting opposite JuJu Smith-Schuster, according to Alex Kozora of Steelersdepot.com.

    Analysis: Don't make too much of this as it was only Day 1 of camp and there's a lot of competition at the wide receiver position. Smith-Schuster is a lock to start this season, but Moncrief is a solid candidate to inherit a decent amount of the 168 targets that went to Antonio Brown in 2018. Fantasy owners drafting sooner rather than later should be careful not to reach too early for Moncrief, who has been inconsistent in his career, though he's also never played in an offense as dynamic as Pittsburgh's.

  • Favorite for No. 2 job

    Moncrief has an early lead for the No. 2 wide receiver spot, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The Steelers should have open competition behind JuJu Smith-Schuster, with some of their decisions based on how often they want to use their best receiver in the slot. Regardless, there will be at least one outside job open for the taking, and Moncrief reportedly has an early lead over James Washington and Diontae Johnson. Kaboly already is calling it a "slam dunk" that Moncrief is the No. 2 receiver, but we prefer a more cautious approach with training camp and the preseason still to come.…read more

  • Needs to battle for snaps

    Pittsburgh drafted wide receiver Diontae Johnson in the third round (66th overall) to compete with Moncrief for snaps, Jacob Klinger of PennLive.com reports.

    Analysis: While JuJu Smith-Schuster is locked in as the far-and-away lead target, Pittsburgh otherwise figures to have an open competition between Moncrief, Johnson, James Washington, Eli Rogers and Ryan Switzer. The team has invested considerable resources in Johnson, Washington (2018 second-round pick) and Moncrief, the latter of whom signed a two-year, $9 million contract that pays out $5 million in 2019, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reports. His contract essentially assures him of a spot on the 53-man…read more

  • Heading to Pittsburgh

    Moncrief agreed Wednesday with the Steelers on a two-year contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Moncrief joined the Jaguars on a one-year, prove-it deal in 2018 and had an up-and-down season, finishing with 48 receptions for 668 yards and three touchdowns. The departure of Antonio Brown leaves a significant hole at wide receiver for the Steelers, and Moncrief now looks like a prime candidate to step in as a starter alongside JuJu Smith-Schuster. Second-year wideout James Washington is another contender to replace Brown, but even if Moncrief is relegated to more of a supporting role in…read more

  • Quiet finish to season

    Moncrief caught two of three targets for 21 yards during Sunday's loss at Houston to finish the season with 48 receptions for 668 yards and three touchdowns.

    Analysis: Moncrief played in all 16 games for the first time since 2015 as he was able to avoid any significant injuries. The 2014 third-round pick signed a one-year, $9.6 million contract with the Jaguars for this season and finished second on the team in receiving yards. The 25-year-old's numbers aren't great considering he was on a prove-it deal, but the fact Blake Bortles and Cody Kessler were leading Jacksonville's offense certainly factors into that, which is illustrated by his 53.9 percent catch…read more

  • Nabs all of his targets

    Moncrief caught all four of his targets for 43 yards during Sunday's 17-7 win over Miami.

    Analysis: Sunday was a nice little rebound for Moncrief, who was held catchless for just the second time of the season during Week 15's loss to Washington. His 19-yarder in the fourth quarter Sunday set up a Jacksonville field goal that gave them a late lead. Such relatively small moments are about as good as it gets for Moncrief and his fellow receivers. The Jaguars' quarterbacks have failed to reach 200 yards in five of the last six games. It might be six out of seven come next Sunday as the Jaguars…read more

  • Catchless in loss

    Moncrief was unable to haul in either of his targets during Sunday's 16-13 loss to Washington.

    Analysis: Though he's been able to have a few solid games in terms of receptions, Moncrief has now been held under 50 yards in five consecutive contests. While there was hope early in the year that the Jaguars' run-first-and-play-defense model could add some timely passing, that doesn't seem like part of the equation at this point with ineffective quarterbacking from Blake Bortles and Cody Kessler, who was held to 57 yards on Sunday, plaguing the team. Sunday should be more of the same, even against a…read more

  • Solid stat line in loss

    Moncrief brought in five of 10 targets for 47 yards in the Jaguars' 30-9 loss to the Titans on Thursday.

    Analysis: Moncrief continued to display solid rapport with Cody Kessler, and he's now compiled a total of eight receptions in the two games that the latter has been under center. Both the 25-year-old's reception and target totals were his best since Week 7 against the Texans, although he did see his streak without a touchdown reception extend to four games. Moncrief will look to play an even bigger role when the Jaguars try to bounce back against the Redskins in a Week 15 interconference matchup.

  • Catches three Kessler passes

    Moncrief caught three of four targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 6-0 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Moncrief led all Jacksonville wideouts in receiving yardage, finishing second on the team overall behind running back T.J. Yeldon's 49. The shift from Blake Bortles to Cody Kessler under center had a small positive effect on Moncrief's production, as he had managed just two catches for 40 yards over the two previous games combined. Jacksonville's passing game as a whole is not a particularly hot fantasy commodity at the moment, and that should be the case once again in Week 14 against the…read more

  • Again finishes with one catch

    Moncrief caught one of his four targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Moncrief's lone catch came up just short of a touchdown, but it was nonetheless another disappointing afternoon. The 25-year-old now has one catch in each of the past two games for a total of 40 yards. The Jaguars have benched QB Blake Bortles for Week 13, and new starter Cody Kessler can hardly be much worse for the team's anemic passing game.

  • Held to one catch in Week 11

    Moncrief caught just one of two targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: The entire Jaguars passing game was stuck in first gear, with quarterback Blake Bortles throwing for a modest 104 yards. Moncrief is the player to own in Jacksonville's receiving corps, but even he's prone to duds like this one. He'll try to bounce back against the Bills in Week 12.

  • Finds end zone in loss to Colts

    Moncrief caught three of four targets for 98 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 29-26 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: Moncrief got his team on the board with an 80-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter, accounting for most of his damage on the day. He added a couple of shorter receptions to lead the team in receiving while posting his second-best yardage total of the season. Moncrief remains capable of breaking off big plays in any given week, but he's also become more consistent of late, posting at least 54 receiving yards in five of his last six games. Suddenly on pace for nearly 850 yards this…read more
