DJ Moore eager to ‘elevate’ Bears offense

Moore understands the business that the NFL is, so his thought process following the trade to Chicago was “to make the most of it, have some fun, get some wins.” On the flip side of the blockbuster trade, general manager Ryan Poles was adamant on receiving Moore in the package.

Following the trade, Moore said he got calls from across the Bears organization “with love.” While that feeling of being wanted by an entire club is positive, the receiver is more focused on how he can effectively produce for his new team.

“I think everybody’s level can reach a new level here now that I’m here,” Moore told reporters Thursday. “I was talking to [Darnell] Mooney and was talking about being together with Chase [Claypool] and me and him, how we’re just going to elevate the offense and just elevate Justin [Fields] at the same time. Because I’m not just here to be like, ‘I’m here,’ just like a bright light. I’m here to make everyone around me better and we just want to try to get some wins.”
