Darnell Mooney's Injury Isn't Serious

one year ago

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney's knee injury that he suffered in the Week 2 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday isn't considered serious, according to a source. Mooney referred to his injury as a "nagging bruise" and thinks he'll be "fine" heading into a Week 3 meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs. The 25-year-old didn't put up any points for fantasy managers on Sunday because of his injury, but he'll have an opportunity to bounce back in Week 3 as long as he doesn't suffer a setback with his knee injury. Mooney had 53 yards and a touchdown in the season opener in Week 1 but didn't have a single target on Sunday. If Mooney does miss the Week 3 contest, Chase Claypool will have a shot to prove he still belongs in the starting lineup.
