Moore had a career season in 2024, managing a 32/351/3 receiving line after last being targeted more than 40 times in 2020. The veteran enters his age-30 season as Carolina’s No. 4 receiver behind Adam Thielen, Xavier Legette, and Jalen Coker. It’s possible that the Panthers will draft a receiver and give him even more roster spot competition. Moore has the special teams chops to hang on the back of a 53-man roster if needed, so this seems like a signing without any real downside for Carolina.

Moore suffered a concussion in the Panthers’ Week 15 loss to the Cowboys. He was practicing in full by Friday, putting him in the final steps of the league’s concussion protocol as of the last practice report. With Xavier Legette out this week, Moore will remain a fixture of the team’s three-receiver sets. With his target totals cooling lately, Moore is deep in the FLEX ranks for Carolina’s matchup with the Cardinals.
