D.J. Moore Has Upside Against Lions Secondary

Friday, September 12, 11:17 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore had an up-and-down season opener against the Minnesota Vikings, catching three of five targets for 68 yards while adding three carries for eight yards on the ground. Moore had chances for a bigger day, including a potential touchdown that Caleb Williams overthrew and a missed fourth-down conversion where Moore was open across the middle. What's more concerning is that Moore trailed second-year receiver Rome Odunze in snap count, target share, and route participation, a trend worth monitoring in the future. Still, Week 2 brings a favorable matchup against the Detroit Lions, who allowed the most receiving yards to wideouts in 2024. Moore has historically thrived against Detroit, posting at least six catches and 60 yards, along with scoring a touchdown in three of his last four meetings. Moore enters this NFC North showdown as a high-end WR3 with upside, especially if Williams can connect on the opportunities that slipped away in Week 1.
