David Moore Rips Off 44-Yard Touchdown In Playoff Win
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver David Moore caught two of his three targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in the Wild Card win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The veteran, who is on his seventh team in seven years, ripped off a 44-yard catch-and-run touchdown in the first quarter to set the tone for the blowout win on Monday night. Although it was an impressive performance, he had just five receptions during the regular season, so he remains nothing more than a budget-friendly DFS option in a favorable matchup against the Detroit Lions on Sunday in the NFC Divisional Round.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver David Moore hasn't been much of a factor in the offense up to this point. However, he was able to put up a decent performance against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Moore hauled in both his targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in the win over Green Bay. He secured a 52-yard catch where a majority of the yards came after the catch. Possibly, Moore earns more chances down the stretch, but won't see enough targets to be a reliable fantasy option. Moore remains off the fantasy radar for next week's matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers promoted wide receiver David Moore to the active 53-man roster from the practice squad on Wednesday. Moore has been promoted to the active roster the last three games but has one catch on two targets for an 11-yard gain to show for it while playing 21 percent of the offensive snaps or fewer in all three contests. The 28-year-old will simply be providing receiver depth for the Buccaneers in Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, rookie Trey Palmer and Deven Thompkins. The last three games are the only three games that Moore has played in this year.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver David Moore has been elevated from the practice squad ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Both Moore and fellow wideout Ryan Miller were elevated on Saturday. That means, the Bucs are likely going to be without Chris Godwin (neck) for Sunday's game. Moore has appeared in one game for the Bucs and is unlikely to have a significant impact. Instead, Mike Evans, tight end Cade Otton, and running back Rashaad White should all see more involvement if Godwin sits out.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released wide receiver David Moore in a surprising development on Monday. He'll be a strong candidate to return to the team's practice squad to open up the 2023 regular season. Moore clearly didn't do enough to impress the coaching staff during training camp and the preseason, but he could still make an impact for the Bucs at some point this year if he sticks on the practice squad. The 28-year-old former seventh-rounder by the Seattle Seahawks in 2017 out of East Central College didn't see any NFL action in 2022. His best season came in 2020 with Seattle, when he caught 35 of 47 targets for 417 yards and six touchdowns in 16 games (six starts). The 28-year-old caught eight passes for 123 yards on 12 targets in the preseason, but he couldn't win a job over Deven Thompkins and rookie Trey Palmer.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver David Moore was able to make the most of his chances during the preseason opener versus the Pittsburgh Steelers on Friday. The 28-year-old missed all of last season due to a leg injury. Before that, Moore was a decent depth option with the Seattle Seahawks. He hauled in 35 receptions for 417 yards and six touchdowns during the 2020 campaign. The Bucs signed Moore as additional depth, but he could very well earn the No. 4 wideout spot on the roster. On Friday, Moore hauled in three of his four targets for a team-high 66 yards in the loss. This was a good start for Moore, so hopefully he'll keep it going during the second preseason game.
Chicago Bears wide receiver David Moore (leg) has been placed on the injured reserve as of Sunday. The 27-year-old won't be making the final roster as he'll now miss the entire regular season. The former seventh-round pick was battling for a final roster spot, but wasn't expected to have a big role anyway. In 2020, Moore finished with 35 receptions, 417 receiving yards, and six touchdowns through 16 games with the Seattle Seahawks. Possibly, he can replicate that again, but it won't happen until next season.
Chicago Bears wide receiver David Moore was arrested in Gainesville, Texas, on drug and weapon charges on Monday. He was released from jail on a $5,000 bond. It comes after receiver Byron Pringle was arrested for reckless driving on a suspended license on April 24, while linebacker Matt Adams was arrested on a misdemeanor gun charge on June 23. Moore signed with the Carolina Panthers in 2021 but didn't make the final roster and ended up playing in three combined games with the Denver Broncos and Green Bay Packers last year, failing to reel in either of his two targets with Denver. The 27-year-old spent his first four NFL seasons with the Seattle Seahawks after the took him in the seventh round in 2017 out of East Central.
Free-agent wide receiver David Moore signed a one-year contract with the Bears on Thursday. Moore, who was selected by the Seahawks in the seventh round of the 2017 NFL Draft, has accumulated 78 receptions for 1,163 yards and 13 touchdowns during his career. Moore isn't the most reliable fantasy option by any means, and he likely won't draw a ton of interest from managers in any format. However, there's a chance his name will pop up in waiver wire columns during the 2022-23 season, primarily if there are injuries throughout Chicago's receiving corps.
The Denver Broncos cut wide receiver David Moore on Tuesday, according to a source. The move isn't unexpected after the team added John Brown last week. Moore was active for two games but didn't record a reception on his two targets. The Broncos are also looking forward to the return of Jerry Jeudy, who remains on Injured Reserve after suffering a high ankle sprain in the season opener. Jeudy has resumed workouts but has a less than 50% chance to return on Thursday night against the Cleveland Browns. There's a much better chance that Jeudy will make his return in Week 8 against the Washington Football Team. The second-year wideout figures to return to a considerable role in Denver's offense and should be rostered in all leagues.
