Who Should I Start? Matthew Slater or Chris Moore

Tuesday, February 20, 12:01 PM

New England Patriots wide receiver and special teams ace Matthew Slater announced on Tuesday that he is officially retiring from professional football. Slater holds the record for most special teams Pro Bowl appearances with 10. "I have given all that I possibly can to respect and honor the game," Slater wrote. "Though it is time for my relationship with the game to evolve, the love I have for it will last a lifetime." The former fifth-round pick by the Patriots in 2008 out of UCLA spent his entire 16-year career in New England and won three Super Bowls with the team and is the franchise's all-time leader in special teams tackles. Slater played in 239 games with the Patriots, second in team history behind only Tom Brady (285). Slater's 25 career postseason games rank ninth-most in NFL history. The 38-year-old was a team captain for 13 straight seasons.

The Arizona Cardinals have signed free-agent wide receiver Chris Moore to a one-year deal on Thursday. This move makes sense given the fact Arizona has let Marquise Brown walk and traded Rondale Moore. Although, there's not a ton of value here, but the veteran wideout is a low risk move for the Cardinals. His best season came with the Houston Texans during the 2022 season. He finished with 48 receptions, 548 yards, and two touchdowns during that season. It's unlikely that he does that again, but he might get a decent amount of reps if the Cardinals fail to add anyone else this offseason.
