DJ Moore Targeted Nine Times In Win Over Panthers

DJ Moore Targeted Nine Times In Win Over Panthers

one year ago

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore was a clear focal point on Thursday Night Football against his former team, finishing with five catches on nine targets for 58 yards in the team's 16-13 win. The star receiver also saw his first rushing attempt of the season, which went for just one yard. Justin Fields (thumb) remained out for this matchup, and the ceiling of Moore's fantasy value is drastically limited with Tyson Bagent. Since Fields went down, Moore is yet to have 60 receiving yards or a touchdown despite seeing nine targets in two of four games. Fields was questionable most of the week, and he should have a pretty good shot to play Week 11 with the long layoff. The Bears take on the Lions in Week 11, who are 18th in PPR points per game allowed to wide receivers. If Fields can suit up, Moore returns to a must-start with high upside.
