US EditionChicago Bears Finalizing Deal for DJ Moore Trade to Buffalo Bills
D.J. Moore's trade helps the Bears manage salary cap issues while the Bills add a veteran receiver to support Josh Allen's championship pursuit.
- Ian Rapoport, NFL Network insider, reported March 5, 2026, that the Chicago Bears are finalizing a trade sending wide receiver D.J. Moore to the Buffalo Bills for a mid-round draft pick.
- Facing a tight salary cap and receiving depth, the Bears traded Moore because his contract made him expendable and younger receivers Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III emerged last year.
- Moore's contract details show $82.635 million in injury guarantees with $43.65 million fully guaranteed, while his career stats include 574 receptions, 7,704 yards, and 36 receiving touchdowns.
- The Bills gain a proven top target for quarterback Josh Allen, a win‑now move to bolster their passing attack, while the Bears open cap space to address other needs and replace Drew Dalman.
- Executed before free agency began, the trade is reshaping multiple receiver rooms in real time and reunites wide receiver D.J. Moore with Joe Brady, Bills head coach and his former Panthers assistant.
