The Chicago Bears continue to be active this NFL offseason. They have sent the prolific wide receiver DJ Moore to the Buffalo Bills for a fifth-round pick. Moore has been with the Bears since 2023 and has started all 17 games in each of his three seasons with Chicago.
The 28-year-old wide receiver was great for the Bears. In his three years in the Windy City, he had 244 receptions for a total of 3,012 yards. He also had 20 touchdowns on top of that. However, his role diminished slightly in 2025. Moore was targeted 140 times in 2024, but that number fell to 85 in the past season.
Moore is expected to be more of a threat with the Bills in 2026.

Moore will have the opportunity to elevate his game with the Bills. The Philadelphia native will now join 2024 NFL MVP Josh Allen in Buffalo. This means the incoming wide receiver will have a lot of opportunities to showcase his skills with the Bills.
After confirming his trade, the official Bills account shared a post highlighting their new acquisition.
“It’s lovely to have @idjmoore as a Buffalo Bill. 😁” the caption read.
Moore sent a message to Bills fans.
“Bills Mafia. DJ Moore here, I’m checking in,” he said. “It’s lovely. Let’s Go!”

It’s no wonder that Moore is excited to have a fresh start with the Bills. He will look to replicate his first season with the Bears. In his first year with Chicago, he had career highs of 1,364 receiving yards and eight receiving touchdowns.
With Allen leading the offense for the Bills, Moore should slot in easily and feel at ease in Buffalo.
