Limited in practice throughout the week, Moreno's status had been up in the air. It now appears the shoulder injury he suffered in Week 1 against the New England Patriots won't prevent him from starting in Week 2. Fellow teammate Mike Wallace (hamstring) has also been listed as active.
Fantasy Impact: Following his 134-yard performance against the Patriots last week, this is certainly good news for fantasy owners looking to continue riding his performance. With Moreno scheduled to start, Lamar Miller will most likely return to his role as a backup. Last week, Moreno received almost double the amount of touches than Miller. Look for that to continue in what's considered a very tough matchup against the Bills front seven. Even so, Moreno should still be considered a solid RB2 in most formats.
