Bears Trade Moore to Bills, Boost Passing Game

0:00Here's more NFL news for March 5th. The Chicago Bears are trading wide receiver DJ Moore to the Buffalo Bills in a big move reported by ESPN. Details on the compensation are still being worked out, and the deal can't go official until the new league year starts next week. Both teams are eager to wrap it up soon. For the Bears, this makes a lot of sense with their young talent stepping up. They've got promising receivers like Roe Maudunze and Luther Burton, the third, plus tied in Colston Loveland, who's shown as a rookie. Moore had a tougher year and carries a huge $110 million contract, so moving him frees up 16 million in cap space. Meanwhile, the Bills badly need weapons for quarterback Josh Allen after some receiver losses. Moore steps in as a proven playmaker, who could become their top option. The 28-year-old has racked up 4-1,000 yard seasons and hasn't missed a game in five straight years. These just what Buffalo needs to boost their passing game heading into next season.

1:00Right now, talks are ongoing about the final trade pieces, but expect Moore to suit up with the Bills before long. This shake-up could change things for both teams in the AFC and NFC. The Daily News Now is powered by our sponsor. Headphones in a pillow. Once you try it, it just makes sense.
