Darnell Mooney Hopes For Boost In Week 11

Darnell Mooney Hopes For Boost In Week 11

12 months ago

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney hasn't had the season he imagined, recording over 60 yards just once and scoring only one touchdown. Justin Fields (thumb) is set to return this week, but Mooney's best game this season came with backup Tyson Bagent under center. The 26-year-old has only seen more than four targets three times this year and hasn't found the endzone since Week 1. The overall offense should improve with Fields returning, but Mooney is yet to make a consistent impact this year even when the offense is thriving. The Bears take on the Lions in Week 11, who allow the 11th-most points per game to receivers this season. Due to his overall weak body of work and low ceiling, Mooney belongs on benches in most formats this week.
