Darnell Mooney Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

Last year, Darnell Mooney posted the second WR3 finish of his career in fantasy points per game (WR34), and he could easily do it again in 2025. There's no disputing that the Falcons' passing attack will be led by Drake London and Mooney this season. The target tree is extremely consolidated. Last year, Mooney had a 19.6% target share while averaging 62 receiving yards per game (29th-best), posting 2.04 yards per route run (31st) and 0.099 first downs per route run (28th, per Fantasy Points Data). With Michael Penix looking to push the ball downfield more than Kirk Cousins did, I could see Mooney's target share jumping into the low 20s and his fantasy stock increasing accordingly. Mooney is a nice late-round WR3/flex that could offer more if Penix puts it all together in 2025.
