DJ Moore had a fantastic first season with the Chicago Bears in 2023, when the team still had Justin Fields as the regular starter under center. That season, Moore posted career-highs of 1,364 yards and eight touchdown receptions on 96 catches through 17 games. Many expected he’d get even more productive in 2024 when the Bears moved on from Fields and drafted Caleb Williams. Instead, Moore regressed, but still managed to rack up 966 receiving yards and six touchdowns on 98 catches.
With Ben Johnson taking over as Chicago’s head coach, there is another reason to be optimistic about Moore’s chances to put together a solid campaign.
Selected in the first round (24th overall) of the 2018 NFL draft by the Carolina Panthers, Moore is already going down to work as he prepares for his eighth season in the pros.
“Loading Year 8️⃣💫,” Moore shared in a post on Instagram.
