Mooney struggled with fatigue at times last year, and he spent the offseason working to avoid a recurrence in 2022, Dan Pompei of The Athletic reports.
Even though Allen Robinson (now with the Rams) was often thought of as the Bears' lead receiver last year, it was Mooney who was the top pass catcher on the team for the majority of the season. From Week 8 on, he had six games with at least 60 yards with three of those resulting in over 120 yards. Firmly atop Chicago's wideout depth chart, Mooney -- who turns 25 in October -- will have a full training camp to continue to build chemistry with QB Justin Fields, on the heels of a 2021 campaign in which he recorded an 81/1,055/4 stat line (on 140 targets) in 17 games.
