Bears' DJ Moore: Game-winning grab
DJ Moore recorded five receptions on seven targets for 97 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 22-16 overtime win over the Packers. He added one rush for 12 yards.Moore was expected to serve in a big role due to Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden (ankle) both being sidelined. However, he made a limited impact early on after suffering an apparent back injury early in the first quarter, while Caleb Williams attempted only nine passes in the first half. Despite the slow start, he managed to play through the injury and played a key role in Chicago's comeback win, delivering long catches of 22 and 20 yards in the fourth quarter. Moore capped off his day with a 46-yard receiving score to give the Chicago Bears the win in overtime. This was his highest yardage total of the season, and Moore now has five touchdowns in his last five games.

Bears' DJ Moore: Pair of scores in win
DJ Moore recorded four receptions on five targets for 69 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-3 win over the Browns.Moore didn't see a big bump in targets even with the continued absence of Rome Odunze (foot), finishing tied for second on the team with five opportunities. However, he delivered splash plays throughout the game to deliver a big fantasy performance. Moore's longest catch of the day went for 25 yards just before halftime, but his most impactful catches were scores of six and 22 yards -- the latter of which was a highlight-reel catch between two defenders. He remains an inconsistent producer, but he has now scored multiple times in two of his last four games while also topping 60 yards in both of those contests.

Bears' DJ Moore: Abysmal showing against Packers
DJ Moore recorded one reception on three targets for minus-4 yards in Sunday's 28-21 loss to the Packers.Targets were expected to condense around Moore and Luther Burden with Rome Odunze (foot) sidelined, but Moore was completely uninvolved. His three targets matched his season low, while his only catch came late in the second quarter. Moore now has under 20 receiving yards in four of Chicago's last five games.

Bears' DJ Moore: Three touches in win
DJ Moore brought in two of five targets for 17 yards and rushed once for 10 yards in the Chicago Bears' 24-15 win over the Eagles on Friday.Just five days following a two-touchdown effort against the Steelers, Moore was virtually a non-factor in Friday's upset victory. Moore has topped out at two catches and 18 receiving yards in three of his last four games, making his 5-64-2 line versus Pittsburgh in Week 12 an outlier within that stretch. Caleb Williams' inconsistencies certainly don't help the veteran receiver's cause, but he figures to at least draw plenty of targets in a critical Week 14 road clash against the Packers on Sunday, Dec. 7.

Bears' DJ Moore: Two-TD tally in high-scoring win
DJ Moore brought in five of seven targets for 64 yards and two touchdowns in the Chicago Bears' 31-28 win over the Steelers on Sunday.In what has been a rare instance this season, Moore outperformed fellow wideout Rome Odunze on the afternoon, leading the Bears in receptions and receiving yards while checking in second to his teammate in targets. Moore also was the only one of the two to get into the end zone, recording touchdowns of five and 25 yards in the first and third quarter, respectively. The veteran wideout hadn't scored since Week 3 prior to Sunday, and his performance snapped an ugly two-game funk during which he'd recorded just one catch for 18 yards on seven targets. Moore and the Bears' air attack draw a tough Week 13 matchup on Black Friday, when they'll travel to face the defending champion Eagles.

Bears' DJ Moore: One catch across last two games
DJ Moore caught one of three targets for 18 yards and rushed once for three yards in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Vikings.Moore has just one catch in the last two games combined after recording at least three catches in each of the 18 preceding regular-season games. Recent first-round draft picks Rome Odunze and Colston Loveland have led Chicago's passing game in recent weeks, and Moore's opportunities have been limited in a run-first Chicago Bears offense. Moore's pedigree suggests he's likely to bounce back at some point, and a Week 12 home game against a Steelers defense that has struggled to defend the pass offers an opportunity for the 28-year-old wide receiver to do so.

Bears' DJ Moore: No injury designation
DJ Moore (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings.Moore made it back to full practice participation by the end of the week after not taking part at all on Wednesday. He hurt his shoulder during last week's win over the Giants, briefly exiting the game before returning to a reduced role in the second half. Moore's target rate is just 17.8 percent this year -- his first time ever below 20 percent -- but recent comments from Chicago Bears coach Ben Johnson suggest the team is pleased with how Moore has adapted to a role with modest target volume. It could be a different story later this season if a brutal second-half schedule gets the best of the 6-3 Bears.

Bears' DJ Moore: Upgrades to limited practice
DJ Moore (shoulder) was limited in practice Thursday.Moore missed Wednesday's practice due to the shoulder injury that forced him to briefly exit last week's win over the Giants, though he retook the field early in the third quarter. It's encouraging to see Moore back on the practice field and handling at least limited reps, but if he isn't able to upgrade to a full session Friday, he'll risk carrying an injury designation into Sunday's road contest against the Vikings. Rome Odunze (ankle) also upgraded to a limited practice Thursday after having been sidelined Wednesday.

Bears' DJ Moore: Dealing with shoulder issue
DJ Moore didn't practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury.Moore briefly exited this past Sunday's win against the Giants due to a shoulder issue but was able to return early in the third quarter. He proceeded to finish with no catches on four targets, his first time getting blanked in the box score since the Panthers made him a first-round pick in the 2018 Draft. Moore will have two more chances to practice this week before the Chicago Bears potentially make a ruling on his status for Week 11 action on Friday's injury report.

Bears' DJ Moore: Blanked in Week 10 win
DJ Moore didn't catch any of his four targets in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Giants.Moore and Rome Odunze traded places after Moore led all Chicago Bears wide receivers in receiving yards while Odunze went without a catch in the Week 9 win over the Bengals. Prior to Sunday's goose egg, Moore had at least three catches in every game this season. Chicago's wide receiver room has been hit-or-miss with the Bears leaning more on the ground game lately, but Moore will try to get back on track in Week 11 against the Vikings, just as Odunze did against the Giants.
