DJ Moore Might Not Get as Many Touches

Thursday, June 5, 6:39 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore is unsure exactly what his specific role is going to be in new head coach Ben Johnson's offense in 2025. Moore finished with a career-low 56.8 receiving yards per game while catching 98 of his 140 targets for 966 yards and six touchdowns in 17 starts. The 28-year-old had a career-best 1,364 receiving yards and a career-high eight touchdowns in his first year in Chicago with Justin Fields at quarterback, but he struggled to gel with Caleb Williams in his rookie season, especially early on. "Right now I don't have goals because I'm still learning everything and I don't even know if I'm going to touch the ball as much as I did some years or if I'm going to be used the same way," Moore said. He could be used in the slot, but the Bears also added tight end Colston Loveland and receiver Luther Burden III in this year's draft.

Alexander Mattison Heads To South Beach

Thursday, March 13, 9:35 PM

Former Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison is signing an undisclosed deal on Thursday with the Miami Dolphins, sources told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Earlier in the day, former Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert signed with the Raiders in free agency. The 26-year-old Mattison joined the Raiders in 2024 after spending his first five years in the NFL with the Minnesota Vikings. He eventually took over the lead-back role from a disappointing Zamir White and carried the ball 132 times for 420 yards and four touchdowns (a career-low 3.2 yards per tote) in 14 games (seven starts), adding a career-high 36 catches for 294 yards and another score. Mattison's move to Miami is a big downgrade, as he'll merely be competing for a change-of-pace role with Jaylen Wright behind unquestioned starter De'Von Achane. He'll be avoidable in most fantasy drafts this fall.
