DJ Moore Returns To Must-Start Status In Week 11

DJ Moore Returns To Must-Start Status In Week 11

12 months ago

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore took a major hit in the last four weeks when quarterback Justin Fields (thumb) was sidelined. The star receiver posted three 100-yard games and five touchdowns in the first five games with Fields but managed no more than 58 yards in a game and no touchdowns in the four full games with Tyson Bagent. Although his overall production dropped in these games, Moore was still targeted at least five times every game and saw nine targets twice. He still clearly remained in the gameplan, and the ceiling of the passing attack drastically increases with Fields back. The Bears take on the Lions in Week 11, who allow the 11th-most points per game to receivers this season. With his starting quarterback returning, the former Panther is a must-start due to his game-breaking ability.
