Bears' DJ Moore: Struggles continue
DJ Moore recorded four receptions on nine targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 29-9 loss to the Cardinals.Moore saw his highest target total since Week 3, but he continued to struggle to get on the same page with Caleb Williams. He managed a 16-yard gain to help set up a field goal just before halftime but otherwise failed to make much of an impact on the game. Moore now has under 40 receiving yards in five of eight contests on the campaign.

Bears' DJ Moore: Another poor perfromance
DJ Moore caught two passes on four targets for 27 yards in the Chicago Bears' 18-15 loss to the Commanders on Sunday. He also rushed twice for seven yards.Moore struggled in a game in which Caleb Williams completed just 10 passes. However, the receiver has been held to 27 or fewer receiving yards in three of the last four games. The pass catcher has one game this season with double-digit PPR points, and Moore is on pace for one of the worst seasons of his career.

Bears' DJ Moore: Low yardage in victory
DJ Moore caught four passes for 20 yards in the Chicago Bears' 35-16 win over the Jaguars on Sunday in London.Moore was tackled just short of the goal line on a play that could have salvaged his fantasy day. With the Bears dominating the Jaguars, there was little need to force passes to Moore, so the receiver saw a season-low five targets. On the season, Moore has at least eight targets on four occasions, so he'll usually be a high-floor fantasy option with big-game potential.

Bears' DJ Moore: Two TDs in Week 5 win
DJ Moore caught five of eight targets for 105 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 36-10 win over the Panthers.Moore got the Chicago Bears on the board with a 34-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter and added a 30-yard touchdown reception late in the first half. He set a season high in receiving yards and is the clear top option in a Bears receiving corps that also includes Keenan Allen and rookie first-round pick Rome Odunze, who combined for 73 yards on 12 targets in Sunday's win. Moore has three touchdowns in his last two games heading into a Week 6 matchup against the leaky Jacksonville secondary in London.

Bears' DJ Moore: First TD with Williams
DJ Moore secured three of six targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in the Chicago Bears' 24-18 win over the Rams on Sunday.Moore tied with Cole Kmet for second on the team in receptions and was the runner-up in targets as well. However, on what was otherwise a pedestrian afternoon, Moore had a hand in a notable moment when he secured a nine-yard touchdown grab late in the third quarter from Caleb Williams, his first in conjunction with the rookie first overall pick. Moore's slight drop in production is likely an outlier given he's been heavily involved each week to date, and he'll have a chance for a bounce-back effort against a vulnerable Panthers secondary at home in Week 5.

Bears' DJ Moore: Eight grabs in Sunday's loss
DJ Moore caught eight of 10 targets for 78 yards in Sunday's 21-16 loss to the Colts.The veteran wideout actually finished third on the Chicago Bears in both receiving yards and targets behind Rome Odunze and Cole Kmet, as Caleb Williams erupted for 363 passing yards. More than half of Moore's production came on a Hail Mary at the end of the first half, when he caught a tipped ball at the one-yard line but couldn't get into the end zone. Moore has consistently been Williams' first read and has 28 targets through three games, and that volume could start turning into more production if the rookie quarterback is beginning to shake off his jitters. Moore will look to build on this performance in Week 4 against the Rams.

Bears' DJ Moore: Leads team in receiving on SNF
DJ Moore finished with six receptions on 10 targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 19-13 loss to Houston.Moore continues to be rookie quarterback Caleb Williams' favorite target through two games this season. The volume has helped offset the star wideout's lack of touchdowns as the Chicago Bears continue to search for a passing score through eight quarters of action. Moore's production should rise alongside improved play from his rookie signal-caller as Chicago prepares to travel to Indianapolis in Week 3.

Bears' DJ Moore: Shows rapport with Williams
DJ Moore recorded five receptions on eight targets for 36 tards in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans.Moore didn't have a particularly strong stat line, but he showed the best rapport with Caleb Williams of the Chicago Bears' pass catchers. He caught each of Williams' three longest completions, which went for gains of 13, 12 and 11 yards. While it was a disappointing start to the season for Chicago's offense, better production can be expected in future weeks, and Moore looks to still be the centerpiece of the wide-receiver unit after his excellent 2023 campaign.

Bears' DJ Moore: Sitting Thursday
Coach Matt Eberflus said Tuesday that the majority of Chicago's starters, likely including DJ Moore, will sit for Thursday's preseason finale against Kansas City, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.Eberflus specified that quarterback Caleb Williams won't play Thursday, and it seems all but assured that Moore will be included in the group of players held out until the regular-season opener against Tennessee. The wideout has spent the offseason developing chemistry with 2024 first overall pick Williams, whose presence under center promises to notably upgrade Chicago's passing game. Even if the additions of Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze threaten Moore's ability to replicate his 28.8 percent target share from last season, an improved offense as a whole should represent a net positive for Moore's fantasy prospects in terms of consistency.

Bears' DJ Moore: Catches pair of Williams passes
DJ Moore caught two of three targets for 27 yards in Saturday's 33-6 preseason win over the Bills.Moore was the only wide receiver to record a catch while rookie quarterback Caleb Williams was in the game, as Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze combined for only one target. Those offseason additions could cut into Moore's volume after Moore led the team with 136 targets last season, but Chicago's entire passing game has a much higher ceiling with Williams under center than it did with Justin Fields last season. Moore will look to keep building chemistry with Williams as the Chicago Bears continue preseason play next Saturday against the Bengals.
