From the episode

He has an AC sprain in his shoulder. If you saw him when he first got hurt, he landed hard on that shoulder in week two. And then he played the next week with really no problem whatsoever. But then last week, he aggravates the shoulder. Again, AC sprain, you know, it's the tip of your shoulder, right, where your collarbone and your point of your shoulder blade meet. So if you fall and you land on it, you can aggravate it... one bad landing. They might have to pull him out, but he could also make it through the game like he did in week three without issue.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Moore's AC shoulder sprain risks game exit on bad landing; expected to try playing.

DJ Moore has an AC sprain in his shoulder sustained in week two, aggravated in week four. He landed hard on the shoulder initially and re-aggravated it the following week. The injury is healing but vulnerable to further aggravation on contact; he is expected to try to play against the Rams despite the risk. One bad landing could force him out of the game, though he made it through week three without issue. Berry notes this is a gamble for fantasy owners: he could play through the game or be pulled out depending on contact.
