From the episode

I watched a clip of him in practice on Wednesday when he was a limited participant and he went up for a ball and caught the ball above his head, which to me was a sign that he's probably going to play.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Moore WR23 but starting on 29-point projection; AC joint injection likely; reduced role expected.

Moore is WR23 but Hayden starts him because Bears are projected for 29 points vs. Chargers. Moore missed Week 1.5 with AC joint injury; limited practice Wednesday (caught ball above head, sign he'll play); didn't practice Thursday. Hayden expects Moore to get injection, wear brace, and not have same exact role. Even with reduced role, 29-point projection is too high to bench. Chargers defense equally bad as others discussed; small at corner, and Moore is tough tackle when fully healthy. AC joint injuries typically binary: either have mobility/comfort with injection or don't. Moore says he wants to play, so Hayden expects injection + brace.
