As receiver DJ Moore begins his second season in Chicago, excitement is building about the team’s new offensive scheme and new set of playmakers.
Between free agency and the draft, the Bears acquired quarterback Caleb Williams, receivers Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze, running back D’Andre Swift and tight end Gerald Everett to pair with Moore – who has recorded 1,000 yards in four of his six NFL seasons – and other returning offensive weapons such as tight end Cole Kmet, running back Khalil Herbert and receiver Tyler Scott.
Moore feels the depth within the receiver room can create healthy competition within the group.
“You got Keenan, Rome, you got Velus [Jones Jr.], you got Tyler,” Moore said. “You got endless playmakers in there. It’s probably going to be a race to 1,000 [yards] now. I don’t know who’s going to get there first, but it’s going to be a race.”
